Refugees are staging a protest at a railway station in Hungary, waving placards and refusing to be taken to a migrant camp.

The refugees began chanting at Bicske - a town 22 miles (35km) outside Budapest. 

The protest started as Hungary's prime minister Viktor Orban described the flow of migrants as "endless".

He warned: "We could end up a minority in our own continent."

Mark Stone, reporting for Sky News in Bicske, said: "This is a a pretty desperate situation. There are women, there are children - these are family units.

"They are still here, they are still on the train, they don't want to go to the camp." 

Elsewhere, German police said five people were injured, one seriously, after a fire broke out at a refugee shelter.
