Hello Australia - Something not seen in decades, thousands of refugees on the roads of Europe walking to escape war and oppression - The Syrian boy whose drowning might have changes Europe's view of the refugees is taken home - Australia might pitch in to help Europe - And more in your CareerSpot World News Briefs:

At least hundreds, probably thousands, of refugees had enough of waiting for Hungary's right-wing government to come to its senses and began walking towards the Austrian border.  They set off, singles and families, walking along highways as traffic passed by.  Along the route, Hungarians no doubt greatly embarrassed by Prime Minister Viktor Orban's shameful conduct during the past week passed out food and bottles of water.  It's a 175 kilometer walk from Budapest to the Austrian border, but PM Orban refused to allow the refugees to use the trains - even though some had spent their last bits of money on tickets.  Late after dark, word came that Hungary and Austria worked out a deal and that buses would come for the crowds and take them across the border.

Hungary's attempt to contain another group of refugees at a camp outside Budapest began to crumble.  A few were able to push through police barriers and ran off, joining the throngs walking west to Austria.  Others continued their standoff with cops at the train station at Bicske.  Earlier this week, police allowed members of this group to get on the train, with the understanding they'd be taken to the border.  But Hungarian authorities double crossed the refugees and took them to a make-shift "processing center", where the refugees refused to cooperate and demanding to be allowed through to Germany and Austria.

The father of that Syrian toddler - whose drowning has become a rallying point for people calling for better treatment of refugees - returned to Kobani. Abdullah Kurdi buried his wife Rihana, their five-year old son Ghaleb, and three-year old Aylan - whose photo showing his body washed up on the beach, face-down became a rallying point for those calling for humane treatment of the refugees.  Kurdi's sister in Canada says she will continue to try to bring her brother over and get him out of Kobani - a shell of its former self, bombed out and decimated by Islamic State attacks on the undefeated Kurdish defenders. 

Germany and Austria have said they will welcome refugees, but they're also calling on other EU members to step up and take in their fair share.  After weeks of balking, UK Prime Minister David Cameron says his country will accept "thousands" more Syrian refugees in response to the worsening humanitarian crisis.  It comes under massive internal pressure - a petition urging Cameron to accept refugees instantly got three times the original target number of signature, and opposition figures have labeled his delays as "shameful".  Far away, the Australian federal government is reportedly readying to take in more Syrian refugees and help take some pressure off of Europe.
