SUBOTICA, Serbia - Hundreds of refugees and migrants have been trapped in "no-man's land" on the Serbia-Hungary border where they are either forced to live in makeshift camps in terrible conditions or cross the border illegally with the help of smuggling networks.
With at least one hundred people arriving every day, and Hungary only letting in about 15 asylum seekers every 24 hours, the situation is growing increasingly desperate.
MEE visited Subotica, a main transit point point for refugees and migrants and the unofficial Kelebija camp where people have erected tents just centimetres from a barbed wire fence separating Serbia and Hungary.
