Approximately 5.7 million people from Ukraine remain displaced worldwide, 3.8 million are internally displaced, and 4.1 million have returned either within Ukraine or from abroad, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) reports.
"Displacement remains a defining feature of the crisis," said an IOM spokesperson in a statement regarding the recent attacks in Ukraine, published on the organization’s website on Tuesday.
IOM also expressed deep concern about the continuing rise in civilian casualties across Ukraine and stressed the urgent need for measures that prioritize the protection of civilians and ensure necessary humanitarian assistance.
"The civilian population in Ukraine continues to bear the heavy burden of the war, with Russian strikes hitting cities and villages on the frontline and beyond. In July 2025 alone, 286 deaths and 1,388 injuries were recorded by the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, the highest monthly toll since May 2022," the statement reads.
The IOM emphasized again the urgent need for actions that prioritize civilian protection and provide essential humanitarian aid.
