Watch as migrants appear to leave a Canary Wharf hotel.
In new footage taken from outside the hotel, footage appears to show a group made up of mainly men boarding a large coach with their belongings.
Many are covering their faces with brown envelopes.
According to GB News contributor Jack Hadfield, who was on the ground in Canary Wharf, two separate coaches arrived to collect a busload of individuals.

It comes after police detained a man in his twenties following allegations that he forced his way into the home of a visually impaired woman in Tower Hamlets.
The suspect had been residing at the Britannia Hotel, which is the Canary Wharf hotel in question.

A Metropolitan Police spokesman said: "Our investigation continued on Thursday, with officers carrying out extensive CCTV enquiries and speaking to witnesses.
"As a result of this, in the early hours of this morning - Friday, 15 August - we arrested a man in the Hackney area on suspicion of common assault.

He is believed to be in his early 20s. We can confirm that this is the man who allegedly entered the flat. He is now in police custody."
The four-star establishment's conversion to asylum accommodation has sparked sustained opposition since early August, when demonstrators first assembled outside the property.
Police have been forced to step up their operations in recent weeks with protests and counter-protests happening outside the hotel housing asylum seekers.
The demonstrators, mainly made up of women and girls, were holding signs saying “my streets, my choice” and “forced hosting is NOT democracy”.

Initial protests on 3 August saw masked individuals and families with young children gathering at the site, where participants chanted "send them home" whilst one person shook the perimeter fencing as officers looked on.
The spectacle drew attention from passing tourists and shoppers, with many stopping to photograph the demonstrations.
Similar scenes unfolded across London that weekend, including confrontations at the Thistle City Barbican Hotel in Islington where nine people were detained, whilst Newcastle's New Bridge Hotel witnessed four arrests for suspected public order violations.
The Metropolitan Police subsequently announced contingency measures to address potential protest activity near other London hotels accommodating asylum seekers.
The appearance of larger vessels on Channel crossings has compounded concerns about immigration enforcement.
Border Force personnel examined the extended dinghy at Dover port, where officials noted its increased capacity compared to traditional smuggling craft.
Monday's crossings brought 474 people across the Channel, contributing to more than 50,000 arrivals since the current administration took office.
The Government's focus on disrupting trafficking networks faces scrutiny following the termination of the previous administration's Rwanda relocation programme, which aimed to discourage Channel crossings by redirecting claimants to the African nation.
These developments coincide with heightened tensions at accommodation facilities like the Britannia International, where community friction continues to escalate.
The Home Office does not comment on individual sites housing asylum seekers.
