Secretary-General António Guterres (not pictured) visits a refugee centre in Chișinău, in the Republic of Moldova, run with the support of UN agencies. In the centre  refugees can find a temporary place to stay, access services such as legal assistance and medical support, have a hot meal or register for cash assistance. During the visit, the Secretary-General met with a number of families who are housed there or just using the services provided by the centre. Moldova has, within the last months, taken in almost half a million Ukrainian refugees fleeing the war. A girl is working on a computer at the refugee centre.
