As the exodus to Europe from mainly Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan continues Austria is now sending asylum seekers back to where they first entered Europe.

Austrian Interior Minister, Johanna Mikl-Leitner said:
“If I remember the numbers rightly, we have sent more than 5,000 or 5,500 back from Austria, especially to Bulgaria and Romania among others.”
