Ana Blazic told local media she was pushing her newborn son in his pram while out with her two young nephews in Obrenovac, close to the Serbian capital of Belgrade.

She said one man approached her and pushed her over before trying to take the pram with her baby inside.

Ms Blazic said: "I fell on the other migrant, and the two others were standing to the side.

"Somehow, I reached the carriage and started to pull it back.

"Many things crossed my mind in that moment. I thought my baby would fall out of the pram and be hurt and paralysed.

"I thought they would take my baby that I had waited so long for.

"I fought with all my strength not to let them take him away from me."
