London: Suspected far-right rioters appeared in British courts on Tuesday as the UK government said 6,000 specialist police were ready to deal with England's worst disorder in over a decade.
Almost 400 people have been arrested and 100 charged over the week-long disturbances sparked by online misinformation about the murder of three children in a mass stabbing.
Prime Minister Keir Starmer was due to chair his second emergency meeting in as many days late Tuesday as police forces across the country brace for further possible violence.
The unrest, Britain's worst since the 2011 London riots, has led a number of countries to warn its citizens about the dangers of travelling in the United Kingdom.
Rioting in several cities has seen demonstrators throw bricks and flares at police officers, burn cars and attack mosques and at least two hotels that have been used as accommodation for asylum seekers.
