Tripped migrants 'happy' to be in Spain

A Syrian father who was tripped up by a Hungarian camerawoman while running across the Hungary-Serbia border has arrived in Spain.

Osama Abdul Mohsen was holding his 7-year old son Zaid, when he fell to the ground.

The incident was captured on film, and the camerawoman, Petra Laszlo, was fired and later apologised.

Mr Mohsen, said he was "very, very happy" to be in Spain, and said he hoped his wife and two other children, who are in a refugee camp in Turkey, would be able to join him.
