This is stated in the report of the International Organization for Migration (IOM), published on the survey results.

Its findings showed that even in the long-term absence of essential utilities without information about the timing of their restoration, 2/3 of respondents said they would not leave their homes.

"Almost 18 million people, 40% of Ukraine's population, are in urgent need of humanitarian assistance," said IOM Ukraine Chief of Mission Anh Nguyen.

Organization data shows 43% of households in Ukraine have exhausted their savings, and 63% of respondents said they limit gas, electricity and solid fuel consumption.

Verkhovna Rada Commissioner for Human Rights, Dmytro Lubinets, during a report in the media center "Ukraine-Ukrinform" on December 14, said that almost 8 million Ukrainians went abroad because Russia attacked Ukraine. This is 20% of the actual population of the country.
