On October 17, Hungary closed its border with Croatia, blocking thousands of refugees still traveling from Mediterranean landing points to central and northern European countries, forcing thousands to shift their routes. An estimated 58,000 migrants and refugees heading to Germany and Austria have arrived in Slovenia over the last week alone. The smaller Balkan countries are still straining to cope with the influx of refugees, as they have most of this year. Colder weather has started making the journey even more difficult, as men, women, and children from war-torn and impoverished regions of the Middle East and Africa continue their journey north.

Thousands of exhausted migrants make it to the promised land: 5,000 refugees arrive in Germany and Austria - as George Osborne calls on Europe to tackle the 'evil Assad regime and Isis'

• The buses are taking them to Austria's capital Vienna and Germany, which expects to take in over 800,000 this year
• They began the 100-mile march to the border after Hungary cancelled international trains heading to the two nations
• Hungary reversed its hard-line stance on migrants after being 'overwhelmed by sheer numbers of unwanted visitors'
• More than 50,000 exhausted migrants entered Hungary last month and a record 3,300 entered country on Thursday

• Many of them have actually arrived in Europe by land, travelling through the Balkan states into Hungary
• But the majority still come via barely seaworthy boats, arriving in southern Italy or the Greek islands
• It is estimated that up to 300 migrants arrive on the island of Kos daily - including 6,000 this year alone
• But the arrival of migrants from West Africa in the Canary Islands suggests new routes may be opening up
