Hundreds of farmers are blocking roads and starting fires outside the European Parliament in Brussels.

1,000 tractors have brought gridlock to the city.

They are part of a European movement of farmers who say environmental rules and cheap imports from countries such as Ukraine are threatening their livelihoods.

In France this week, farmers had threatened to starve Paris, blockading motorways across the country, but they have pulled back.

Farming unions called off their protest shortly after fresh concessions from the French government, with French Prime Minister Gabriel Attal saying mistakes had been made.
