Approximately 5.7 million people from Ukraine remain displaced worldwide, 3.8 million are internally displaced, and 4.1 million have returned from displacement either within Ukraine or from abroad, according to the International Organization for Migration (IOM).
“Displacement remains a defining feature of the crisis,” said an IOM spokesperson in a statement on the recent attacks in Ukraine, published on the organization’s website on Tuesday.
IOM also expresses deep concern about the continuing rise in civilian casualties across Ukraine and stresses the urgent need for measures that prioritize the protection of civilians and provide necessary humanitarian assistance.
“The civilian population of Ukraine continues to bear the heavy burden of war as Russian strikes hit towns and villages on the front line and beyond. In July 2025 alone, the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights recorded 286 deaths and 1,388 injuries, the highest monthly figure since May 2022,” the statement said.
The IOM also stresses the urgent need for measures that prioritize the protection of civilians and provide necessary humanitarian assistance.
