The head of the UN’s refugee agency said Tuesday he expected the number of refugees fleeing the war in Ukraine to top two million in the next two days.

“I do think that we will pass the 2 million mark today or maybe at the latest tomorrow. So it doesn’t stop,” Filippo Grandi, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, told reporters in Oslo.
