(ANSA) - BERLIN - The influx of migrants into Germany continues: they enter the country crossing the border between Austria and Bavaria. According to a spokesman for the German federal police, about 5,500 people have arrived in Passau on Tuesday. About 8,000 arrivals had been recorded the previous day. Two migrants have almost drowned after they jumped, in dispair, into river Inn, which marks the border between Austria and Germany. Dragged into the current, the two migrants saved themselves by clinging to the pylon of a bridge, before being rescued by police.

This morning, the two reception centres located in Lower Bavaria - Passau and Ruhstorf - received, respectively, 1,700 and 1,000 migrants who will be redistributed to other centres in coming hours.(ANSA).
