The astounding refugee crisis on the European Union’s doorstep

More than 677,000 Ukrainians have already fled Russia’s war on their
country as of Tuesday, and that number is rising hourly.

“I have rarely seen such an incredibly fast-rising exodus of people — the
largest within Europe since the Balkan wars,” United Nations commissioner
for refugees Filippo Grandi said during a United Nations security council
meeting on Monday...So far, at least 280,000 Ukrainians have gone to
Poland, 94,000 to Hungary, 40,000 to Moldova, 34,000 to Romania, 30,000 to
Slovakia, and tens of thousands to other European countries.
