As the Russian military bombards civilian areas and intensifies the war, in neighboring Poland, children and adults alike are giving a lot of strength to help the refugees.
As the supply shortage in Ukraine is getting worse, the livelihood of the people is expected to become more difficult if the war is prolonged.

A transit center for refugees has been set up near the Medica checkpoint on the Polish-Ukraine border.
It connects the refugees with transportation to where they want to go, lodging facilities available, and also serves as a hospital.
Ukrainian refugees who have crossed over to Poland through the Medica checkpoint arrive here at the huge transit center.
As you can see right now, tons of items and food can be taken away for free.
It is the kindness that Polish citizens have gathered for Ukrainian refugees in just two days.
The high school gymnasium in downtown Psemisil has become a temporary accommodation facility where more than 100 Ukrainian refugees who have crossed the border to escape the war since last week eat and sleep.
Poles have gone out of their way to help Ukrainian refugees, young and old.

The Ukrainian refugees, who did not even have time to properly pack their bags, expressed their gratitude.

After the Russian invasion, it was confirmed that the supplies necessary for daily life, such as gasoline and gas, were in short supply in Ukraine.

The city was well-polished, but theft was rampant in the outskirts.

It has been confirmed that there is still room for food in Ukraine.
However, the refugees are earnestly praying for an end to the war as soon as possible, saying that if the war is prolonged, there may also be a shortage of food.
