War in Ukraine: More than 200,000 Ukraine refugees in Germany

Escaping war always drives people from Ukraine. According to the UN, more than 3.1 million people have fled abroad – the federal police have identified 207,742 war refugees in Germany.

Since the start of the Russian attack on Ukraine, the federal police have identified 207,742 war refugees in Germany. This was announced by the Federal Ministry of the Interior on Saturday.

Only refugees who are found by the federal police, for example at the Austrian-Bavarian border, at train stations or on trains, are recorded. As a rule, there are no fixed border controls at the internal EU borders, and Ukrainians are also allowed to enter the country without a visa – the number of people who actually arrived is therefore probably significantly higher. It is also not recorded how many of the refugees may be traveling on from Germany to friends or relatives in other countries.

Russia’s war against Ukraine began on February 24. According to the UN, more than 3.1 million people have fled Ukraine abroad since then. Around two million people have arrived in Poland alone so far.
