The beginning of 2022 was marked by the war in Ukraine. This resulted in an exodus of large numbers of families with children flowing into Slovakia. Since then, more than 850 000 refugees have crossed over the border from Ukraine into Slovakia. Some of them just wanted to transit through the country, while others decided to settle temporarily. During the biggest wave, Slovak Telekom set up three sales points at the border, where refugees were given free cards with initial credit worth EUR 10. They were also able to get the same cards at any point of sale. Preferential calls to and from Ukraine helped to strengthen the technological infrastructure, and we operated free WiFi at refugee facilities. However, communication was not the only need of the desperate people fleeing from Ukraine. They also required material, psychological, emotional and legal assistance. Telekom donated more than EUR 110 000 and continues to operate hotlines free of charge that allow refugees to get psychological help, legal advice, and other important information.
