Articol de Radiojurnal, 02 Martie 2022, 17:37

Since the start of the war, about 120.000 Ukrainian refugees have entered Romania, and about 70.000 of them have already left for Western European countries.

One of the busiest border crossing points is Siret.

The RRA correspondent, Mihaela Buculei, talked to the refugees, but also to the spokesperson of ISU Suceava, Captain Alin Galeata.

Alin Galeata: Their arrival is fluctuating. We're trying to take them all. Here we have the minibuses of the military firefighters that can ensure a flow of up to 500-600 people per hour, we transport them to the accommodation places, both in the camp and in the other locations.

According to official information, in Suceava County there are about 3.000 places available for refugee accommodation provided by the Archdiocese of Suceava and Radauti, administrative-territorial units, economic operators and individuals.
