Locals Welcome Migrants At Embattled Heidenau Shelter

HEIDENAU, GERMANY - AUGUST 28: Migrants look through the donation boxes as locals gather with migrants seeking asylum in Germany for a welcome fest at the migrants shelter on August 28, 2015 in Heidenau, Germany. The shelter has been the focus of both rioting by right-wing groups who clashed with police last week as well as visits by politicians, including Chancellor Angela Merkel. Local authorities initially prohibited the fest, claiming they had insufficient police to protect it, though a court overturned the prohibition. Germany is expecting to receive 800,000 asylum-seeking migrants this year and is struggling to cope with the record number. (Photo by Matthias Rietschel/Getty Images)
