Syrian children wearing colourful blankets provided by Austrian volenteers, amidst other refugees at dawn. Having crossed the border they are waiting patiently for permission to advance to take transport onwards into Austria. A standoff lasting weeks and blocking thousands of refugees, most of them Syrian, at Budapest’s main railway station has ended dramatically. More than 1,000 refugees began a march on foot to Vienna because the Hungarian government wouldn’t let them take trains to Austria and Germany. Faced with this, the Hungarian government suddenly reversed its policy. Overnight on September 5 a fleet of buses took 4,000 refugees to the border with Austria.
