Slovenian Prime Minister Miro Cerar says he will take action to protect his nation's security if other European countries — notably Croatia — do not help Slovenia cope with the migrant influx. Greece's coast guard says a woman and two children aged 7 and 2 have drowned after their boat smashed into coastal rocks on the island of Lesbos amid turbulent seas. The coast guard says the boat carried 63 migrants at the time and 53 of the passengers were rescued. The bodies of the dead have been recovered and two helicopters and two ships, from the Greek coast guard and from the EU border agency Frontex, continue the search. German authorities say three people were injured when a fight broke out over religious differences between two groups in a home for asylum seekers. Dresden police said Sunday that about 100 people were involved in the fight overnight in the asylum center in nearby Niederau, the dpa news agency reported. Croatia says a record number of 11,500 migrants have entered the country in one day in a sign that the flow of people toward Western Europe is not abating. Interior Ministry spokesman Domagoj Dzigulovic said Sunday that the number of people who crossed into the country on Saturday was the highest in a single day since migrants started coming to Croatia in mid-September.
