My Comment: I have heard that the number is actually much higher .... these stats only include those who are now in refugee camps .... it does not include those Ukrainians who have either moved into the homes of relatives (in both Russia and Ukraine), or have moved out of the country entirely (my cousin and her daughter now live in Miami).
