Thousands of migrants trapped in freezing conditions in Bosnia
International aid groups are warning that around 2,500 refugees and asylum-seekers are facing a 鈥渉umanitarian crisis鈥, living in freezing winter conditions in Bosnia and Herzegovina. They are calling for the authorities to provide emergency support. But many people in the region blame Croatia and the EU for not playing their part in helping the migrants - and say Croatian police have illegally turned people back.
Semir Mujki膰 is Managing editor of BIRN, the Balkan Investigative Reporting Network in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
"Their temper towards refugees actually changed in the last year. They were really welcoming for all these years, but that really changed."
