"The war in Ukraine is so devastating that 10 million have fled -- either displaced inside the country, or as refugees abroad."
Ten million people -- more than a quarter of the population -- have now fled their homes in Ukraine since Russia's invasion, the United Nations refugees chief said Sunday.
UNHCR, the UN Refugee Agency, said nearly 3.4 million of the total had fled to neighbouring countries, mostly to the Polish border.
"Among the responsibilities of those who wage war, everywhere in the world, is the suffering inflicted on civilians who are forced to flee their homes," UNHCR chief Filippo Grandi said, implicitly holding Russia.
"The war in Ukraine is so devastating that 10 million have fled, either displaced inside the country, or as refugees abroad," he said.
