Upwards of 1.5 million Ukrainians were estimated Sunday to have been displaced by Russian invasion forces as thousands more make ready to escape a homeland convulsed by war.
U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees Filippo Grandi used social media to lament what he called “the fastest growing refugee crisis in Europe since World War II.”
Grandi, currently visiting countries that border Ukraine, gave no precise figures to back his estimate.
Today at Palanca I saw thousands and thousands of people streaming across Ukraine’s border crossing with Moldova.
Thousands of stories of separation, anguish, and loss.
A difficult day, but much respect for the many dedicated Moldovan officials and people helping the refugees. pic.twitter.com/84dPcFcCPG
