UNITED NATIONS: Since Russia's ongoing conflict began on February 24, more than 6.4 million people have received vital humanitarian supplies in Ukraine, according to the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA).
More than 5.7 million people have been able to put food on their tables, while over 6,55,000 individuals have received monetary support, allowing them to cover some of their most basic needs, according to the OCHA.

More than 1.5 million people have received medical assistance, and 352,000 people have received clean water and sanitary supplies. It also stated that about 4,30,000 people have received protection, psychosocial support, and crucial legal services, including assistance to internally displaced people. 

Despite this amazing scale-up, the UN agency warned that many more people, notably those living in conflict zones, require immediate assistance. According to the OCHA, parties to the conflict should remove any restrictions on humanitarian staff movement to guarantee the continuous delivery of life-saving aid across Ukraine.
