Officials in the European Union plan to meet in Brussels on Sept. 14 to discuss the burgeoning migrant crisis that's currently affecting the 28 countries in the union, according to IBTimes.

The rotating presidency of the EU is currently held by Luxembourg. The country released a recent statement about the growing immigration issues Europe is experiencing, saying it has reached "unprecedented proportions." The countries in the Union must "discuss the next steps" to solve the problem.

Britain, Germany and France jointly asked for an emergency EU summit to discuss the crisis further. On Aug. 27, officials found 71 dead bodies in an abandoned vehicle in Austria. The next day, hundreds of refugees drowned off the coast of Libya. Many of the migrants are coming from Syria and other Middle Eastern countries currently being terrorized by the Islamic State and other terrorist groups. In July alone, the borders of the European Union were flooded with 107,500 migrants, IBTimes reported.

Interior Ministers from all 28 member states of the European Union will be at the Sept. 14 meeting, according to Time. More than 2,500 migrants have died this year attempting to get into Europe from the Middle East. Germany recently announced that the country will allow migrants from Syria to find asylum within their borders.

Austria, meanwhile, has increased border security. The strict policies now include vehicle checks for migrants. Five suspected smugglers have already been arrested since the Sunday security increase, according to Yahoo! News.
