STORY: Refugees arriving in Poland are suffering from a range of health problems, including diarrhea and dehydration, but the main need is for support due to trauma, Paloma Cuchi, WHO representative in Poland, told a briefing in Geneva.

Speaking at the same briefing, UNHCR spokesman Matthew Saltmarsh said that the number of Ukrainians fleeing abroad is now 3,556,924 with more than 2 million crossing the border into Poland.

"This is another tragic milestone for the people of Ukraine and it has been achieved in just under one month," Saltmarsh said, adding that 6.5 million people had been internally displaced within Ukraine.
