Ukraine: Humanitarian situation deteriorates in the east

Armed clashes in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions of eastern Ukraine have forced thousands of families to flee their homes. Reportedly, hundreds of thousands are now displaced both in the country and in Russia. The living conditions of the resident population are worsening also. The ICRC is stepping up activities for the affected population in deteriorating humanitarian and security environments.
