Croatia |
After Hungarian border regulations came into force on 15th September thousands of people-on-the-move walking the Western Balkan trail, have made a change in their route as the Serbian-Hungarian border was closed. In their attempt to reach countries further north in the European Union, migrants travelling through Serbia changed the direction of their migration towards the Republic of Croatia. According to the Ministry of Interior data, some 44,000 migrants entered Croatia from 16 to 22 September, majority of who have already left towards Hungary and Slovenia on their way to Western Europe. |

Hungary |
Hungary, along with many European countries, has seen an enormous rise in numbers of newly arrived migrants onto its territory. Stronger movements have been detected on migration routes from the Western Balkan recently. According to the data received from the National Police Headquarters the situation has deteriorated in recent weeks and nearly 1,000 migrants were registered along the border on a daily basis. This number has been constantly growing over the past week and daily figures exceeded 1,000 and amounted to nearly 1,500 people a day. Most of the undocumented migrants arrive in Hungary in the Southern part of the country, in Csongrad County which lies near the border of Serbia. The majority of migrants from Middle-East war torn areas and from countries of Africa cross the border from Serbia to Hungary, thus arriving in the European Union. The total number of migrants entering the country in 2015 is expected to rise above 140,000. |

Macedonia |
Macedonia has been increasing day after day. The migrants usually come from Greece, and they walk along the railway line Gevgelija Veles in the direction of Kumanovo and the neighbouring villages where they cross the Serbian border on their way to the countries of the European Union. They would usually cross the border on foot, or they might use public transport or bicycles, or they would illegally board some closed train wagons and continue their journey towards the northern border of the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia on their way to Serbia. As a result of recent intensified controls in the trains by the police, most migrants choose to make the trip on foot across the territory of the Republic of Macedonia. They walk along the highway M5 or along the railway in the direction Gevgelija - Demir Kapija - Veles- Skopje - Kumanovo, and on the road they frequently get confronted with criminal groups. |
