How is Poland dealing with Ukraine's humanitarian crisis?

More than 2.5 million Ukrainian refugees have fled to Poland since Russia's aggression to their country started (Updated: 10.04.2022), and, according to the Warsaw Mayor Rafal Trzaskowski, there are some 300,000 in the capital city alone. It is an incredible number of people to welcome and support, so how are Polish people dealing with it? We hear today from Anhelina, an European with a Ukrainian heart, that is volunteering since the refugee crisis started. She'll tell us a bit more about her work and how the population at large is participating to an unprecedented mobilisation.
