Croatia Red Cross says several thousand migrants entered Croatia

Croatia's Red Cross said on Thursday that several thousand people had entered Croatia in the last 24 hours, as migrants shifted their route through the Balkans after Hungary closed its border with Serbia.

 

"I cannot assess the exact figure, but it is surely several thousand people that entered the country," said the local Red Cross spokesperson.

 

The last official police figure from Wednesday evening was around 1,500 people.

 

"We witnessed more inflow of people overnight," she said.
