Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has caused more than 4.2 million people to flee to the neighboring countries of Poland, Romania, Moldova and elsewhere.
Russia’s violence against civilians and attacks on cities caused an additional 6.5 million or more people to become internally displaced. They left their homes but moved within Ukraine to other areas where they hope to be safer.
Russia and Ukraine have been holding sporadic peace talks. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on April 4, 2022, that talks will continue despite Russian soldiers’ committing mass murders of civilians in Bucha, Ukraine.
