Fifty Czech soldiers set up refugee camp on Slovak border

Fifty Czech soldiers sent to help out with the refugee crisis on the Slovak-Ukrainian border have set up army tents for 400 refugees near Liptovský Mikuláš. They will run the refugee camp for at least a month. The Czech government earlier approved the deployment of up to 650 troops abroad, within a broader effort to strengthen NATO’s eastern flank as the war continues to rage in Ukraine. The multinational NATO battlegroup will bring together troops from Germany, the United States, Poland, Slovenia, and the Netherlands.
