Thousands of migrants rushed past police lines across the border into Macedonia on Saturday after spending days without shelter, food or water. Security forces threw stun grenades and beat many of the migrants with batons, ultimately containing hundreds. Many of the migrants are Syrian refugees, fleeing war by entering Greece on the way to Hungary and the Schengen zone. Macedonia closed its borders to migrants on Thursday and declared a state of emergency.
Thousands Rush Across Macedonia Border
I think when it comes to food and survival some will do what it takes and also it goes to show if the people are getting angry, they will do what it takes and not see reason at times and riots may happen due to this. It looks like the security force have a hard job and only managed to stop 100 people, and the rest got through and may need the army to help out. I think it is going to take time to solve the problem and also many will want the food, that is available and also need to be given food and water where it is available.
