A transit centre at Vinojug, on former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia’s border with Greece is where the refugees and migrants pass through on their journey further into Europe. 

Here UNHCR and partner organisations provide food, water, medical care, psycho-social support and information for refugees who take the train towards the border with Serbia. UNHCR also provides information on how to access the asylum system in the country. In recent weeks, an average of 6,300 refugees pass through the camp every day, yesterday that number grew to 10,000, a record.
