"Marching Through the Night"

Refugees march from the Slovenian Croatian border to a refugee registration center in Brezice, Slovenia while being escorted by horse-riding Slovenian police officers. Thousands of refugees from countries such as Syria, Afghanistan and Iraq have crossed into Slovenia on their way to the Western European countries such as Germany since Hungary decided to block their borders with barbed wire fences and refused to accept more refugees to enter their country.
