Operations have been cancelled and people warned they could be turned away from a Cambridgeshire hospital's A&E because of a severe bed shortage.

It is the second time in a month that Peterborough City Hospital has declared a "major incident" alert because of high levels of illness in the region.

Twenty-four operations planned for Tuesday have been cancelled.

People with non-serious illnesses have been urged to visit their GP and not attend hospital.
