Part of the M25 is closed because of a fuel tank fire.

It's broken out on the clockwise stretch at Junction 5 for the M26.

The main carriageway is closed while firefighters tackle the blaze.

It's causing slow traffic on the motorway and traffic is being diverted down the A21 to turn around when possible to re-join the M25.

Highways England have thanked drivers for their patience.
