The Balkan route taken by refugees into the EU has not been in the spotlight for some time. But it's still busy and getting busier. EU officials recorded more than 100,000 people without documentation entering the bloc from the western Balkans in the first nine months of 2022. Serbian visa rules make it relatively easy to go from there into the EU. DW's Idro Seferi went to the OBRA-novats Camp near Belgrade.

An internal email sent on Friday said the mass job cuts were "unfortunately necessary to ensure the company's success moving forward".

Israel's Benjamin Netanyahu set to win election, exit polls say - BBC News
Israel’s former prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, is expected to make a dramatic comeback and win the country’s general election, exit polls suggest.
Mr Netanyahu told supporters “we are close to a big victory”, as projections gave his right-wing bloc a slim majority over his centre-left opponents, led by current Prime Minister Yair Lapid.
The election was widely seen as a vote for or against the former PM’s return, who was toppled last year after 12 straight years in power.
North and South Korea fire missiles off each other's coasts for first ti...
North and South Korea have both fired missiles landing in waters off each other's coasts for the first time.
Seoul retaliated on Wednesday three hours after Pyongyang launched a missile that landed less than 60km (37mi) off the South's city of Sokcho.
The South's military said this was an "unacceptable" breach of its territory.
It fired three air-to-ground missiles in response, which officials said landed a similar distance past the Northern Limit Line (NLL).
The line marks the rough midway-point in the sea between North and South Korea, but the North has never accepted the boundary.
