Chaos in Hungary as huge crowd of migrants force Budapest station to evacuate after trying to board trains for Germany and clashing with police – hours after Merkel hinted at bringing back border checks
By Jenny Stanton
Budapest station was evacuated on Tuesday morning as hundreds of migrants tried to reach Vienna and Munich
Protests were staged and about 100 police officers wearing helmets and wielding batons guarded the station
Meanwhile, one man was lucky to be alive after he was found hidden under a car bonnet by Spanish border police
More than 100 people crammed into a rubber dinghy were rescued from the Mediterranean Sea by the Italian navy
Hundreds of angry migrants, some waving tickets and holding their babies in the air, staged protests outside a Budapest station on Tuesday and demanded they be allowed to board trains to Germany and Austria.
Hungarian authorities evacuated and closed the city’s Eastern Railway Terminus when scuffles broke out between people storming their way onto carriages.
It came just hours after German Chancellor Angela Merkel said the EU's passport-free travel zone was under threat.
Meanwhile, migrants clambered through razor wire fences into Macedonia, risked their lives on rubber dinghies in the Mediterranean Sea, and one man even hid inside a red-hot car engine in a bid to get out of Morocco as the migrant crisis continued to spiral out of control.
