7 March 2022, Budapest, Hungary: Ukrainian refugee woman Alona picks up food and other supplies from the International Red Cross at Nyugati train station in Budapest. Alona and her 1.5-year-old son as well as her mother arrived at Nyugati station from Ukraine on 6 March, following a 26-hour long journey from Kyiv, from which they had to flee following the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine began on 24 February 2022, the Nyugati train station in Budapest has become a central entry point for refugees arriving by train from the Ukrainian border areas in northeast Hungary. At the station, a range of civil society organisations and other volunteers offer support to incoming refugees, including support in arranging free accommodation, tickets for onward travel, as well as necessary items such as snacks and food, diapers for the children, clothes and basic medical supplies.
