The United Nations registered over 5.9 million internally displaced persons (IDPs) in Ukraine in 2022. In February of that year, the Russian invasion of Ukraine began. The number of IDPs increased sharply compared to 2021 when it stood at 854 thousand. Moreover, the figures rose by approximately one million IDPs in 2015. A year prior, Russia-backed separatists started fighting with the Armed Forces of Ukraine in eastern Ukraine and Russia annexed Crimea and Sevastopol.
