16IDOMENI, Greece (AP) - Police clashed Friday with thousands of migrants stuck at the border between Greece and Macedonia, waiting to continue long journeys into European Union countries where they hope to seek asylum.
17Greece has seen a huge wave of migrants, 160,000 so far this year, many fleeing war and persecution in Syria and Afghanistan.
18Most take rubber boats from Turkey to the Greek islands, then make their way north.
19About 39,000 people, mostly Syrian refugees, have registered as passing through Macedonia in the past month, twice as many as the month before.
20They previously encountered little resistance at the border, but the recent influx has overwhelmed Macedonian authorities who this week declared a state of emergency and stopped many from crossing.
21On Friday, police fired stun grenades into a crowd of 3,000 migrants that made several attempts to charge them.
22At least eight people were injured.
