Polish authorities announced that the number of Ukrainian refugees who crossed the borders into Poland had reached 3,592,000 since the beginning of the military operations in Ukraine, media agencies reported on Wednesday.

They added that 21,000 refugees crossed the borders yesterday. In addition, the majority of the refugees are Ukrainian, alongside groups from other nationalities.

It is worth mentioning that Poland passed a bill last March that provides a wide-ranging support package for Ukrainian refugees fleeing their country under which they are granted legal residence in Poland and guaranteed the right to access education, health care, and social services.

It is worth mentioning that the Russian-Ukrainian war has entered its second month as thousands of soldiers from both sides have been killed and millions have been displaced from the Ukrainian side since the start of Russian operations in Ukrainian territory on February 24th.

Several countries have imposed significant economic sanctions on Moscow, while Russia has responded by imposing personal sanctions on a number of American and Canadian leaders.
