There are currently 206 Ukrainian refugees in Međugorje, 132 of whom are children, all of whom are well and provided with psycho-social support.

- They are accommodated in 18 locations, mostly boarding houses. There are 206 of them in total, 132 children, four are male drivers, while the rest are women. Relatively all are well and healthy. We take care of them and they have complete health care - said the Secretary of the Red Cross Čitluk Andrija Stojić.

He said that at the very beginning of the arrival of Ukrainian refugees, one refugee tested positive for Covid, but that the period of isolation had passed, so that there are no infected people now.

He adds that the Red Cross regularly meets all needs, and has organized workshops for psycho-social support.

- Red Cross employees are ready to provide them with psycho-social support at any given moment. So in this field, we are fully prepared to respond to any challenges. So far there are no difficulties and everything is stable. The Red Cross is fully trying to meet its regular obligations - he stressed.

Stojić says that there are also announced arrivals, and whether they will be realized remains to be seen.
