Morawiecki is visiting Lviv to open a Polish-funded "container town" that will be able to provide temporary shelter for 300 to 350 refugees in portable housing, BTA notes.

At the suggestion of the Polish government, container towns for internally displaced people are being built in Ukraine.

They will house women and children fleeing Russian aggression in the east of the country.

The first of them will be opened today in Lviv by Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki, the head of the office of Polish Prime Minister Michał Dworczyk said on Twitter, quoted by Ukrinform.
