The war in Ukraine has torn millions of lives apart and created a massive humanitarian emergency.
One year since the war began in Ukraine, nearly one-third of Ukrainians have been forced to flee their homes. Over 8 million refugees from Ukraine have been recorded across Europe, and over 5 million people are internally displaced.
In Ukraine, many families are surviving in damaged homes, sheltering in bunkers or seeking safety at accommodation centres. Millions are cut off from essential supplies such as water, power and heating, and need urgent assistance.
For those able to escape across the border, the emergency isn't over. Refugees have been forced to leave everything behind. They need a safe place to stay, cash to buy basic items such as food and clothing, and access to counselling and legal aid.
