Germany’s ambassador to the UK, Miguel Berger, is warning that a large number of Ukrainians will leave the country as the winter chill intensifies.
– We are expecting a new wave of refugees in the coming weeks, Berger tells Sky News, pointing to the Russian attacks that destroyed Ukraine’s energy supply as the main cause.
Large parts of Ukraine now have snow and freezing temperatures, while many households lack heating. According to the UN, eight million Ukrainians have left the country since the war began.
