European Union ministers have failed to reach a target they agreed upon for the redistribution of 40,000 migrants who reached Italy and Greece.

According to BBC, they agreed to start the relocation of 32,000 migrants at a meeting in Brussels.

Officials said that the allocation of the remainder will be decided by the end of the year.

Around 1,50,000 migrants are believed to have reached Europe after escaping war and poverty zones.
