#Migrants Dozens ofmigrants found dead ina truck on a motorway service area in Austria

Dozens of migrants were found dead Thursday in a parked truck on a highway in a state of the East of Austria, Hungary border, police said.
The vehicle in which were found 20 to 50 bodies, was on a parking lot in the border state of Burgenland (east), said the police spokesman, Hans Peter Doskozil at a joint press conference with Interior Minister Johanna Mikl-Leitner. "This tragedy affects us all", for his part, said Minister, adding that "traffickers in human beings are criminals."
It was not possible to know at first how migrants were killed nor how long. Burgenland is bordered by Hungary, faced with an unprecedented influx of migrants.
This gruesome discovery came as the German Chancellor Angela Merkel participate in a summit in Vienna with leaders of the Western Balkan countries, whose agenda is dominated by the crisis of migrants.
Before the summit, the Austrian Foreign Minister Sebastian Kurz warned that his country could consider introducing tougher measures against migrants, including "stricter border controls" if the EU failed to find an answer unitary.
