HUMANITARIAN WATCH 11: 4 YEARS INTO RUSSIA’S FULL SCALE INVASION ON UKRAINE

No other topic feels right this week but the fourth anniversary of Russia’s full scale invasion on Ukraine. In this episode of Humanitarian Watch we discuss where we are so many years into this conflict and what is the situation of millions of displaced Ukrainians. As of early 2025, around 6.7-6.9 million refugees from Ukraine have fled abroad. About 93 % into the EU countries. The number of internally displaced people who decided to stay in Ukraine despite harsh conditions and everyday threat to their lives is much greater. Are the international efforts leading us towards the end of this conflict or just polarising it further?
