On Saturday, 6,709 people entered Hungary crossing the Ukrainian-Hungarian border, while 9,859 of those entering at the Romanian-Hungarian border crossing declared that they had arrived from Ukraine, the National Police Headquarters (ORFK) informed the state news agency MTI on Sunday.
Of those who entered, police issued 254 people with temporary residence permits valid for 30 days. They will have to visit the office of the National Directorate-General for Aliens Policing responsible for their place of residence to obtain the permanent documents, they said.
Six people – including two children – arrived in Budapest by train, fleeing the war in Ukraine, ORFK said.
The Budapest Police Headquarters said on police.hu that they are working with the Standby Police to help refugees arriving by train from Ukraine. The Budapest Civil Guard Association is also providing support.
