Röszke on the Serbia-Hungary border.
More migrants are arriving in Europe today via the Western-Balkan route than via the Mediterranean. Many of them have come from crisis regions such as Syria and Sudan. The scene repeats itself, a family with young children, tired to the point of exhaustion, who've travelled thousands of kilometres by road and foot and have ended up in a place like the Röszke transit centre on the Serbian- Hungarian border.
Now it's up to European authorities to decide how best to cope. No-one seems to have any solutions. There have been calls for an EU Summit on the migrant crisis. But fhis has been dismissed by European Commission president, Jean-Claude Juncker who says EU states should implement existing agreements. Austrian foreign minister, Sebastian Kurz, is in Macedonia, which is struggling to cope with the numbers of people heading north, through Serbia onto Hungary and then to Austria and Germany.
Im fact, thousands of migrants have crossed over from Macedonia into Serbia in the past 24 hours en route to the EU, following a decision by Macedonia to stop using force to turn back people at the border with Greece.
Migrants leave the train at the Serbian border, in the city of Kumanovo.
So what are authorities doing and how are officials right across Europe preparing to help? Our correspondent Nick Thorpe is at Röszke on the Hungarian-Serbian border and he tells us about the scenes he’s witnessed there.
