Ukraine war: How many refugees and where might they go?


The European Union (EU) estimates that up to four million people may try to leave the country because of the Russian invasion.

The bloc has relaxed its rules on refugees and says its member states will welcome the refugees with "open arms".


Which countries are Ukraine's refugees fleeing to?

Refugees are crossing the borders to neighbouring countries to the west, such as Poland, Romania, Slovakia, Hungary and Moldova.

On Monday, the UN said that more than 670,000 people had entered these countries from Ukraine.


Poland has so far taken in over 377,000 refugees, according to the UN. The Polish government says a further 50,000 are arriving every day.


Poland is also preparing a medical train to transport wounded Ukrainians, and has drawn up a list of 1,230 hospitals to send them to. 

More than one million Ukrainians have settled in Poland in recent years, especially since 2014, when Russia annexed Crimea

As for countries, the UN says that by 13:00 GMT on 1 March:

  • Hungary had taken 89,561
  • Moldova 65,391
  • Slovakia 54,304
  • Romania 38,461
  • Belarus 329

51,797 people have moved on from these countries to others in Europe.

Refugees are being told they do not need documents to get into neighbouring countries, but should preferably have their internal or foreign travel passports, birth certificates of children travelling with them and medical documentation. 

To get refugee status, they need to be Ukrainian citizens or people legally living in Ukraine, such as foreign students.

However, many people have been waiting for up to 60 hours to cross at border points into Poland, in freezing weather, in queues up to 15km (10 miles) long. Those entering Romania have been waiting for up to 20 hours. 

Many have not been able to board trains taking them out of Ukrainian cities.

What help are countries providing?

In Poland and the other countries bordering Ukraine, refugees can stay in reception centres if they do not have friends or relatives to stay with. They are given food and medical care.

Hungary and Romania are giving out cash allowances for food and clothing. Children are being given places in local schools. 

Countries used to have time limits on how long refugees could spend in reception centres, but most are saying they are likely to waive them and that Ukrainians can stay as long as they need to.

The Czech Republic has activated its Migration Wave Preparedness Plan. This will help refugees apply for a special type of visa through a simplified procedure in order to remain, if needed.

What is the UK doing for Ukrainian refugees?

Previously, the government had said Ukrainians could only come to the UK if they had relatives who are British nationals


How many Ukrainians are internally displaced?

The UN estimates there are now at least 160,000 people in Ukraine who have fled the war and are displaced within their own country. 

The EU believes that figure could climb to seven million, and that 18 million Ukrainians will be affected by the war.

"Even though these are very rough estimates," said European Commissioner for Humanitarian Aid and Crisis Management, Janez Lenarcic. "The figures are huge, and we have to prepare for this kind of emergency, which is of historical proportions." 

What rights do the refugees have?

The EU is preparing to grant Ukrainians who flee the war a blanket right to stay and work throughout the 27 nations for up to three years, according to EU and French officials. They would also receive social welfare and access to housing, medical treatment and schooling for children.

This is in line with the EU's temporary protection directive for refugees, drawn up after the 1990s war in the Balkans, but never used until now. 

The normal rules for refugees have been lifted to let Ukrainians settle where they want in the EU.


Saludos.
