Refugees from Ukraine, including families with children, rest in a shelter in the Polish city of Przemysl after crossing the border. Over 2.8 million people have fled the war in Ukraine, the UN's refugee agency says, describing the outflow as Europe's largest refugee exodus since World War II. IMAGES
Refugees wait at Przemysl train station on the Poland-Ukrainian border, some sitting on the floor, as they wait to board trains taking them further into Poland and further from the war in Ukraine. The United Nations estimates that over 2 million people have fled Russia's invasion of its pro-Western neighbour so far. IMAGES
At a press conference in Nairobi, Kenya, the head of the UN's refugee agency Filippo Grandi says, "Today we pass the mark of half a million refugees from Sudan, following the beginning of the conflict." He also says that the number of people now internally displaced in the conflict torn nation is now at two million. SOUNDBITE

Snowfall and bitter cold does little to deter refugees from crossing the Polish border to flee Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The United Nations estimates the number of people fleeing the war now tops two million. Poland alone has received 1.2 million people. IMAGES
Russia's war on Ukraine has displaced "over seven million people," EU commissioner for crisis management Janez Lenarcic says at a press conference in Brussels after a meeting of EU interior ministers focused on the refugee flow out of Ukraine. SOUNDBITE

Sur cet extrait non daté, qui tourne sur les réseaux sociaux depuis au moins le 12 novembre 2025, on voit l'interception d'un drone par un hélicoptère armé d'une mitrailleuse. L'hélicoptère est identifié comme un modèle Mil Mil-8 de l'armée de l'air ukrainienne. Le drone, lui, est associé aux forces russes et a été catégorisé dans la classe Shahed. L’emploi d’une mitrailleuse est considéré comme l’une des options les plus économiques pour détruire ces aéronefs sans pilote, en évitant d’avoir à tirer un missile à plusieurs dizaines ou milliers de dollars.
