More than five million people are now refugees, after fleeing Ukraine since Russian troops began their invasion of the country on February 24.
In March, a non-governmental organisation, Migration Aid, rented an entire five-story building in Budapest, a former workers' hostel, to provide temporary accommodation for people escaping the war in Ukraine. It has helped some 4,000 refugees so far.
The European nations hosting refugees say they need international help to manage the challenge, especially now as Russia has intensified attacks in Ukraine's east. About 300,000 war refugees are in the city of some 1.8 million, most of them staying in private homes, Mr Trzaskowski said.Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki was in the Ukrainian city of Lviv on Tuesday, visiting a refugee centre made of mobile modules that the governments of Ukraine and Poland jointly built to house displaced individuals who do not want to leave Ukraine.
Data from Poland shows that some 738,000 people have crossed back into Ukraine during the war. Some of them shuttle back and forth to do shopping in Poland, while others return to Ukraine to check on relatives and property, electing to either stay or depart again depending on what they find.
