Refugees And Migrants Wait As Their Asylum Applications Are Processed

BERLIN, GERMANY - AUGUST 06: Refugees use their mobile phones at a temporary home providing assistance for refugees on August 6, 2015 in the Gatow district of Berlin, Germany. Since the beginning of the year, around 300,000 refugees, most recently predominantly from Iraq, Syria, and Afghanistan, have registered as asylum seekers in the country, a figure with which the country has been struggling to cope, particularly on state levels. Although one billion euros ($1.1 billion) have been pledged from the government to assist in the matter this year, critics say that figure should be doubled. Meanwhile right-wing extremists have demonstrated against the arrival of the refugees, particularly in smaller towns. (Photo by Adam Berry/Getty Images)
