Overview

25/01/2023

Active conflict in Ukraine re-escalated on 24 February 2022, when the Russian military entered different Ukrainian cities in a full-scale military operation. Heavy clashes have led to civilian casualties and shelling, significantly damaging homes, public buildings, and critical infrastructure, including schools, hospitals, and roads.?

Insecurity has forced nearly eight million people to leave their homes and seek safety in neighbouring countries, including Hungary, Moldova, Poland, Romania, and Slovakia. Close to six million people are estimated to be displaced within Ukraine as at 5 December.?

As at 17 January 2023, nearly two million people had crossed into Hungary, and more than 33,000 had been registered as refugees. Local and international organisations receive the displaced people and asylum seekers at the border. They usually need food, NFIs, and hygiene kits. They are then transferred to shelters across the country and provided with legal, psychological, medical, and livelihood support by the Government and humanitarian responders.?
