By Fedja Grulovic SUBOTICA, Serbia, Sept 28 (Reuters) - Dozens of migrants from the Middle East and [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html tour trương gia giới] Africa have set up tents outside Subotica, a town in northern Serbia, with a view to sneaking over the nearby border with Hungary and on to Western Europe. According to the Asylum Protection Centre, there are around 1,000 migrants in the northern province of Vojvodina waiting to try to cross into neighbouring countries including Romania and [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html kynghidongduong.vn] Hungary en route to wealthier parts of the continent. A further 1,000 or so were in Belgrade, many of them living in the open air in parks or on river banks before they also moved north towards the border. "We have 150 migrants entering the country from the south every day," said Rados Djurovic, executive director of the centre. Samir, from Morocco, said he had tried to cross the border with Croatia to travel on to Germany, but was stopped by police and military patrols. Now he is outside the camp in Subotica waiting to cross to Hungary. "We are staying here, we have nothing, we are waiting, and I pray all the time that I will make it to (Western) Europe some time," he told Reuters. He and others had pitched tents in the grounds of a government-run refugee camp, where men sat in groups eating walnuts, talking or looking at their smartphones.

Svetlana Palic, spokeswoman for the government's commissionaire for refugees, said overall migrant numbers in Serbia were some 30% higher than the same time last year. She did not say why, but strict policies in Hungary to control the number of migrants entering its territory as well as patrols in Croatia mean some are stuck in Serbia's north. Their plight is back in the headlines after a fire on the Greek island of Lesbos razed a refugee camp housing more than 12,000 people to the ground, stranding most of them. Last week the European Union launched a contentious plan to overhaul migration rules that have long divided the bloc, including an element that would de facto oblige each state to host some refugees. Eastern nations Poland and Hungary are strongly opposed to such measures. Serbia was a focal point for migrants in 2015, when more than a million people fleeing wars and poverty in the Middle East and Asia made it to the EU's shores, overwhelming security and welfare networks, and fomenting far-right sentiment. Samir's friend Adil Faris said: "I know the border is closed and that it is not easy, but we will find a way."

Djokovic Out To Make Amends In Paris For U.S. Open Fiasco

By Zoran Milosavljevic BELGRADE, Sept 24 (Reuters) - If recent form is anything to go by, world number one Novak Djokovic is perfectly poised to launch a challenge for his second French Open title and an 18th major honour after one of the lowest ebbs of his trophy-laden career. Djokovic was disqualified from the U.S. Open earlier this month after hitting a line judge in the neck with a petulant swipe of the ball but he [http://www.savethestudent.org/?s=bounced bounced] back in style by winning his fifth Italian Open title on Monday. The Serb's 7-5 6-3 defeat of Argentine Diego Schwartzman brought him a record 36th ATP Masters crown, helping put behind an acrimonious exit at Flushing Meadows during a fourth-round clash with Spaniard Pablo Carrenno Busta. Djokovic, who stretched his hot streak to 31 wins in 2020, acknowledged the success in Rome had helped him overcome the disappointment of being defaulted in New York in an incident that put him in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons. "I did experience mentally some ups and downs in the first four-five days after that happened," he said. "Obviously having a tournament a week after helped a lot because I really wanted to get on the court and get whatever trace of that out of the way. "It was a great week, a very challenging week," Djokovic said after grinding down Schwartzman at the Foro Italico, having fought back from dropping the opening three games in front of a smattering of fans. "I found my best tennis when I needed it most. Now we turn to Paris and [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html tour phượng hoàng cổ trấn] I couldn´t ask for a better tournament here in Rome." There is little doubt that Djokovic will face a strong challenge at the French Open from the tournament's record 12-times winner Rafa Nadal and Austrian Dominic Thiem, who won his maiden grand slam title in New York. Nadal was stunned by Schwartman in the Italian Open quarter-finals but Djokovic stressed the Spaniard was still the obvious favourite to triumph in Paris, adding that he'd have to raise his game in order to be a contender. "He's the player who has the highest chance of being in the final... if it's Roland Garros it's Rafa you bet on," said Djokovic. "I don't think I played my best tennis (in Rome) to be honest, I don't want to sound arrogant here. I am very satisfied and [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html kynghidongduong.vn] pleased to win a title. I know I still have a couple of gears. "Hopefully I'll be able to raise that level for the French Open because that's going to be necessary if I want to go deep in the tournament." In addition to the Italian Open, Djokovic also won the Australian Open, the Dubai Championship and the Western & Southern Open this season, having also lifted the inaugural ATP Cup with Serbia. He will now need to hit top gear at Roland Garros if he is to erase the U.S. Open debacle, where he was the hot favourite after Nadal had pulled out due to COVID-19 concerns while Roger Federer is out for the season after knee surgery.

Serbia Commemorates Daring World War Two Airlift Mission With Monument

PRANJANI, Serbia, Sept 26 (Reuters) - A monument shaped like a military transport plane was unveiled on a Serbian hillside on Saturday, commemorating the rescue of hundreds of allied pilots who were shot down by German forces during World War Two. About 500 airmen, mostly Americans, were brought to the village of Pranjani during 1944 to be airlifted back to base in Bari, Italy, in the bold mission behind enemy lines - known as Operation Halyard. U.S. diplomats and senior Serbian officials raised their countries' flags at the site in central Serbia during Saturday's inauguration ceremony.

Radoljub Jankovic, a local resident who was 14 at the time of the airlifts, recounted his memories of the operation in a speech at the ceremony. "I still hear the noise of the engines of the American planes in the air," he said, presenting a bottle of home-made traditional plum brandy to the U.S. ambassador [https://www.kynghidongduong.vn/tours/tour-trung-quoc-nam-ninh-truong-gia-gioi-phuong-hoang-co-tran-6-ngay.html tour trương gia giới] to Serbia and Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic. "I will make sure to drink this bottle of traditional Serbian brandy with President (Donald) Trump when he visits Serbia so he feels how American soldiers enjoyed it 76 years ago," Vucic said.
