Zagreb – Refugees, eager to get to northern Europe, are now crossing into Croatia after Hungary blocked them at its frontier with Serbia

Croatia is expecting an influx of more than 20,000 migrants over the next two weeks after Hungary sealed its border with Serbia, a minister said Thursday.
“We expect a peak within the next two weeks … over 20,000 migrants,” Health Minister Sinisa Varga said, quoted by the state-run HINA news agency.

The interior ministry said Thursday 6,200 migrants had arrived in the EU member state from Serbia in a little more than 24 hours.
