May 2022 – The humanitarian situation in Ukraine deteriorated significantly following the Russian military offensive beginning February 24.This has resulted in an estimated 5 million people displaced to neighbouring countries including Hungary, Moldova, Poland, Romania and Slovakia, and nearly 8 million people internally displaced. The UN estimates that over 12 million people need immediate humanitarian assistance. On March 1, 2022, humanitarian partners issued appeals for approximately US$2 billion to support the humanitarian response inside Ukraine and the humanitarian needs of Ukrainians seeking refuge in neighbouring countries. In light of the complexity of the crisis, it is anticipated that humanitarian needs will grow. This requires ongoing donor support to allow partners to scale up their humanitarian response in Ukraine and neighbouring countries.
