Holidaymakers are facing chaos at Heathrow Airport after emergency services evacuated Terminal 2. 

The airport has reportedly been thrown into disarray, leaving travelers in a state of confusion after being told to leave with no clear reason why. 

Images shared on social media have showed crowds of people amassed inside the airport, while other images also show emergency vehicles parked outside and police with sniffer dogs roaming around the building. 

It is not immediately clear as to what has caused the evacuation, while it is also unknown whether any flights have been delayed or cancelled. 

The travel chaos is likely to bring misery to thousands of England supporters who are looking to travel to Germany in time for the Three Lions' Euros quarter final match on Saturday.
