This week’s R&D from Prepd covers Ukrainian refugees.  CBS News reported yesterday that 3.6 million Ukrainians have fled the country due to Russia’s invasion, while the BBC recently noted that another 6.5 million are believed to be displaced inside of the country.  The Biden administration announced that the U.S. would be accepting 100,000 refugees and pledged additional monies for assistance.  Neighboring countries like Poland have accepted the bulk of Ukraine’s refugees thus far.
