Ukrainian refugees at risk of exploitation by human traffickers

Ukrainian refugees fleeing the war are at acute risk of exploitation by human traffickers as they may fall prey to criminal gangs that are waiting to traffic people across Europe and into the hands of exploitative industries.

Amid chaos, Ukrainian women and children go missing at border, cases of human trafficking and rape have been reported.

We have distributed flyers with safety tips prepared by European Freedom Network this weekend in Medyka, Poland, from where hundreds of thousands of refugees are fleeing war.
