Hundreds of Migrants March in Serbia to Protest Closed EU Border
Migrant march in Serbia shows ongoing agony of Europe's refugee crisis.
-- Hundreds of migrants marched in a refugee-led demonstration in the capital of Serbia today, protesting the closed borders to the European Union amid the ongoing agony of Europe's ongoing refugee crisis.
The refugees, carrying signs and chanting "Open Hungary Borders," gathered in Belgrade, Serbia, today to protest the strict closed border laws of neighboring EU member-state, Hungary, according to The Associated Press.
"We don't need food, water or nothing, we want you to open the borders," some signs carried by the protesters read, The AP reported.
Local law enforcement intervened when a conflict broke out between factions of protesters and migrants who were against the protest, The AP reported; however, no one was injured in the clash.
More than 6,000 refugees have become stuck in Serbia this summer since Hungary began enforcing stricter border control laws and heavily reinforced its border and patrols, according to The AP.
