Number of Refugees Arriving in Belgrade "Steadily Rising” - FOND B92

The number of refugees in the park near the Belgrade Bus Station has been increasing and the humanitarian organisations say that the last weekend was the most dynamic so far. As they say, the number of the refugees transiting through Belgrade continued to increase and only in the afternoon and evening hours about 600 of them sought assistance in the Asylum Info-Centre. They also say that the situation is very close to the scenario of the beginning of last summer. 

Info-Park representatives state that the record number of 818 food parcels were distributed in the park near Bristol Hotel by Refugee Aid Serbia, Miksalište, Divac Foundation Evangelical Church, NSHC/Care, Praxis and Info-Park. Food parcels include sandwiches, canned foods, noodles, cooked meals, pastries, cookies, fruit, tea, coffee. It is also noted that it is generally believed that the trend of the increase in the number of refugees has been initiated by an unhindered activity of smugglers who help them cross the officially closed Balkan borders, and by favourable weather conditions.
