Highlights of Reuters' Pictures of the Year for 2015 include a photograph taken in September of a Syrian refugee kissing his daughter as he walks through a rainstorm towards Greece's border with Macedonia. Hundreds of thousands of people have streamed into Europe this year, mostly through Greece. Balkan states began blocking passage last month to all but Syrians, Iraqis and Afghans, who are considered as refugees because they are fleeing war zones.
