German Chancellor Angela Merkel announced, that about three thousand Iraqi migrants are returning to Iraq from Germany every month.

Migrants wait for their registration outside the State Office of Health and Social Affairs (LAGeSo) in Berlin on October 1, 2015. A record 270,000 to 280,000 refugees arrived in Germany in September, more than the total for 2014.
