Hundreds of people started arriving in Slovenia on Saturday as a new migrant route opened in Europe after Hungary sealed its border for their free flow. The closure of Hungary's border with Croatia early Saturday caused redirections of thousands of people - including women and small children soaked in cold rain - further west toward Croatia's border with Slovenia, AP reported. This could leave thousands stranded in Croatia and further east and south in Serbia and Macedonia. Several buses packed with migrants arrived in the Slovenian border town of Petisovci on Saturday from Croatia. Police spokeswoman Suzana Raus said that after processing, most of them will be transferred toward the Austrian border. The U.N. refugee agency said Slovenia has the capacity to accept some 7,000 migrants a day.
