Unpleasant odours came from a chemical plant in Rouen, Normandy, and wafted over the English Channel, with some people reporting the smell to West Sussex Fire and Rescue Service.
HAMPSHIRE Fire and Rescue Service said its control room has received a ‘steady stream’ of calls from people reporting a strong smell of gas in the air.
It confirmed more than 20 calls were received from the Portsmouth area but there have been reports as far north in the county as Basingstoke and Andover, and as far west as Ringwood.
