Over 70,000 Ukrainian refugees expected to be housed in Ireland by the end of this year, all entitled to free medical cards and social welfare




Over 70,000 Ukrainian refugees are expected to be housed in Ireland by the end of this year.

This number is likely to rise as winter takes hold in Ukraine and more people flee the war and the local conditions.

It is unclear where all these people will be housed, since there are over 11,000 homeless people in Ireland already.

They’re all entitled to free medical cards, free social welfare, can work here and the government will bend over backwards to get a warm roof over their heads.
