Berlin, Dhu-AlQa'dah 25, 1437, Aug 28, 2016, SPA -- Germany's top migration official predicts that fewer than 300,000 refugees will come to the country this year, a sharp drop compared with the height of the migrant crisis in 2015. Frank-Juergen Weise, the head of the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees, said in an interview in the German weekly Bild am Sonntag he expects between 250,000 and 300,000 new arrivals in 2016. Germany saw an unprecedented influx of asylum-seekers last year, due in part to decision to allow migrants stuck in other European countries to come to Germany, AP reported. --SPA 20:42 LOCAL TIME 17:42 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
