How many Ukrainians have gone abroad since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion revealed
Some 14.5 million Ukrainians have fled the country since the start of Russia's full-scale offensive.
Ukrainian parliamentary ombudsman Dmytro Lubinets has said:
More than 14.5m Ukrainians left the country after 24 February, of whom at least 11.7m left for EU countries. 7.7m of them are registered as refugees under temporary EU protection.
4.7 million Ukrainians are internally displaced persons.
Also earlier, Ukraine Support Tracker, Bartosz Marczuk and the Polish Development Fund reported that Ukrainians in Poland paid almost as much in taxes as Poland spent on helping Ukrainian refugees.
Bartosz Marczuk, vice-president of the Polish Development Fund, said:
We have spent 3.5 billion zlotys (750 million euros) to help Ukrainians. We have received 10 billion zlotys (2 billion euros) from the taxes they have paid.
