(19 Nov 2015) Three Balkan countries have shut their borders to migrants from states that are not directly engulfed in wars, according to the UN refugee agency.
A UNHCR spokeswoman said on Thursday the border regimes were changed overnight.
She said Macedonia was not allowing entrance from Greece to people from Morocco, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Liberia, Congo and Pakistan.
On the Serbian border with Macedonia, she said Serbs were only allowing in migrants and refugees from Syria, Afghanistan and Iraq.
On the Croatia-Serbia border, Croats were allowing in migrants and refugees from the same three countries, plus Palestinians.
The spokeswoman said Serbia had overnight turned back to Macedonia some 200 migrants, and Macedonia had not let them in, meaning they were are stuck in "no-man's land".
