Medyka border crossing

Refugees fleeing the war in Ukraine are crossing the border into Poland at the Medyka border crossing. One month into the war, more than 2,1 million people have fled from Ukraine into Poland.

Medyka is the biggest crossing along the Polish-Ukraine border, which has witnessed up to 130,000 people passing from Ukraine daily since 24 February 2022 in the biggest mass flight of the century.
