[QUOTE]The Balkan nation of Croatia grappled with an increasing wave of migrants on Tuesday.
Croatian officials said that 2,400 migrants had entered the country in just the past 12 hours. Nearly 35,000 people have already arrived in the country, which has a population of only 4.4 million.
Europe as a whole has struggled in recent weeks to fashion a coherent response to a historic wave of people fleeing conflict and destruction in the Middle East and North Africa -- primarily from Syria, where a civil war has raged for more than four years, leaving cities in ruins.
So far, 34,900 migrants have been allowed into Croatia, the Ministry of Interior said in a statement. But the migrants are moving through the country to other destinations fairly efficiently, Croatia said, with 5,100 transported out of the country on Monday and a further 1,160 by Tuesday morning.[/quote]

So far, less than 1% of Croatia's population worth of refugees have entered, whether to pass through or stay.
