7. SOUNDBITE (English) Emma Gillie, Doctors Without Borders spokeswoman:
"At the moment there are almost five thousand people in Idomeni camp, they have just opened the border for the first time in almost a day. I can see there are only around ten people or so who have crossed so far, but there are group of twenty people waiting to cross who have been accepted by police. It is just that it is a very slow process now, because people have to be searched, their ID documents have to be checked, so it is very slow, but it is a really encouraging sign that the border is now open."

STORYLINE:
Macedonian authorities briefly opened the border with Greece to let small number of Iraqi and Syrian refugees into the country on Saturday.
This came three days after Macedonia effectively shut down its border to all migrants, as countries along the Balkan route imposed tight border restrictions.
About 5,500 migrants were braving rainy weather at a tent camp close to the border in Idomeni and another 500 were camped at a nearby gas station on Saturday.
