Ukrainian refugee numbers in Poland drop sharply, bucking EU-wide trend
RzeczpospolitaSRC LO·PL · UA · CZ·3 days ago
Regulatory changes in Poland have delayed child benefit payments to refugee and migrant families, affecting over 103,000 foreign children, per ZUS. An Afghan family with six children exemplifies the hardship, as the father's minimum wage cannot cover housing. The situation indicates a systemic administrative failure with humanitarian consequences, though the duration and full scope remain uncertain.
