Hundreds of migrants, egged on by activists, are protesting near the fence separating Macedonia from Greece, demanding that the border be opened to allow them to continue their journey into central Europe. Greek riot police are standing between the fence and the protesters, who are chanting “Open the borders!” and holding placards. Macedonian police are also standing ready in case the border is breached. About 11,500 refugees have been stranded in a makeshift camp in the Greek border town of Idomeni.
