Irish men are using escort websites to fulfil their “war-inspired fantasies” and paying for sex with Ukrainian refugees, an expert has warned.
Anti-trafficking expert Valiant Richey, of the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe, said there has been increased demand online from men who want to pay for sex with Ukrainian women and girls.
Mr Richey said the war is being exploited by human traffickers as there is a mass movement of vulnerable Ukrainian women and girls across Europe while their male relatives stay back to fight on the frontline.
