Almost 13,500 Ukrainian refugees arrive in Ireland - McEntee
Just under 13,500 Ukrainian refugees have arrived in Ireland, according to the Minister for Justice Helen McEntee.
Arriving at an emergency meeting of EU justice and interior ministers in Brussels, Ms McEntee said 93% had arrived via Dublin Airport.
However, more and more Ukrainians were now travelling across Europe by bus and train, then getting flights from other countries.
Some 3.9 million have fled Ukraine in total, with 2.2 million of those entering Poland.
