GB Davis Cup team arrives in Belgium

Great Britain's Davis Cup team, which includes Andy Murray, has arrived in Belgium amid heightened security for this weekend's final against the Belgian side in Ghent.

The capital Brussels, 35 miles away, is in its third day of a security lockdown and on the highest level of alert over fears of a Paris-style attack.

Extra security measures have been put in place for the three-day final.

The GB team delayed travelling to Belgium because of the security alert.

Britain's squad of Andy Murray, Jamie Murray, Kyle Edmund, Dominic Inglot and James Ward arrived on Monday after postponing their Sunday flight, and were due to practise for the first time on Monday afternoon.
