(Vice) – A recent report by Doctors Without Borders (MSF) in Serbia details how child refugees are being abused by border force officials all along the Balkan Route. The Balkan Route is a path – popular with Syrian, Iraqi and Afghan refugees – that runs from Turkey into Greece, Bulgaria, and north towards Germany. Last year, the EU and Turkey placed extra border control forces and electric fences along the route to stop asylum seekers from reaching Western Europe – though thousands of people continue to attempt the journey every month.
