From the beginning of 2023, the army will receive refugees at the military bases in Freiburg and Dübendorf, and from February places will be allocated at the military bases in Thun and St. Lusisteig.
By the end of the year, the total number of Ukrainian refugees in Switzerland may reach 75,000. In this regard, the Swiss army will provide the State Secretariat for Migration (SEM) with additional places and personnel to receive Ukrainians. This was reported by Schengenvisainfo.
It was noted that the Swiss Federal Council announced the auxiliary deployment of the army until the end of March 2023.
“SEM, along with the army, has expanded the space to accommodate more than 9,000 people since the spring and recruited additional care and security personnel. However, additional resources are needed to continue providing shelter and care for asylum seekers in the coming months,” – said the message.
Thus, according to preliminary estimates, about 3,000 additional beds will be needed in the coming months. The army will allocate about 2,100 places for placement on the premises of its schools, and if necessary, it will be possible to accommodate up to 2,700 people there.
It is reported that from the beginning of 2023, the army will receive refugees at the military bases in Freiburg and Dübendorf, and from February will allocate places at the military bases in Thun and St. Lusisteig. In addition, the migration services will attract up to 500 military personnel to assist.
Recall that the UN announced its readiness for new waves of movement of Ukrainians.
It has also been reported that the Czech Republic intends to employ Ukrainians in the defense industry.
