ANSWER: Hungary
 
Hungary has declared a state of crisis across its border with Serbia on 15th September , detaining around 155 migrants and threatening prosecution of illegal migrants. On midnight, 15th September 2015, migrants who tried to break the 109 mile fence along Hungary’s border with Serbia faced the possibility of arrest and criminal charges. Hungary will also set up a transit zone across the border with Serbia only allowing those applying for asylum to enter. Hungary has received 48 asylum applications so far. Hungary will also be extending the fence to border with Romania.
