Large groups of migrants cross into Hungary
Budapest, September 18 (MTI) – The police have apprehended some 500-600 illegal migrants near Gyekenyes at the Hungary-Croatia border, believed to have walked across a nearby railway bridge, the police reported on Friday.
The migrants, mostly young men, are taken to registration points, the police’s website said, but did not indicate the exact location.
Meanwhile, over 800 migrants arrived on a train from Croatia to Hungary’s Magyarboly. The crowd, including many children, changed for a special train at the local station, in the direction of Pecs.
The station is secured by some 50 armed police officers and soldiers.
