Foreign ministers from four countries in Eastern Europe are meeting for talks today to address the influx of Syrian refugees fleeing violence in their home country. Thousands of people flooded into Austria over the weekend, with more expected to arrive from Hungary today. Hungary has reportedly reopened its main border crossing with Serbia, after its closure sent refugees streaming into Croatia. In Serbia, hundreds of people attending a heavily guarded LGBT pride event in the capital Belgrade over the weekend called for solidarity with the refugees and migrants passing through their country. Meanwhile, at least 13 people, including four children, died when their dinghy collided with a ferry off the coast of Turkey. Another 26 people are missing in a separate incident after their boat sank off the coast of the Greek island of Lesbos.
