Outside an abandoned factory close to the Serbian - Croatian border a migrant from Iran showers in a mobile shower unit provided by the international charities. Sid is a town and municipality located in the Srem District of the autonomous province of Vojvodina, Serbia. The town of Sid is located directly next to the Serbian Ð Croatian border. The Balkan route was officially closed over a year ago with Croatia and Hungary increasing border security which has led to migrants and refugees becoming stuck in Serbia. While the borders around Serbia have tightened there are still attempted border crossings every night. Many refugees and migrants choose to illegally cross the border into the EU because the asylum application takes a long time. The Majority of migrants from Pakistan prefer to illegally enter the EU rather than risk waiting for their asylum applications to be rejected and then forcibly deported back to Pakistan.
