SARAJEVO—Two migrants were killed in a brawl in northwest Bosnia as regional authorities emptied a migrant reception center in the town of Bihac and moved hundreds to a camp 50 km (30 miles) away, police said on Thursday.

Eighteen other migrants were injured, 10 of them seriously, in the violence late on Wednesday evening involving migrants from Pakistan and Afghanistan, according to Ale Siljdedic, spokesman for the Bihac regional police. The migrants were fighting each other, not local police, he said.
