Second tent town for Ukrainian refugees being constructed in Prague

Prague firefighters began constructing a tent town for Ukrainian refugees in the capital’s Malešice district with a capacity of 150 beds on Monday. The improvised settlement will include an eatery and showers and is mainly intended for those refugees who have recently found themselves stranded at Prague’s Main Train Station. Construction should be finished by the end of the day.

It is the second tent town to spring up in Prague in recent weeks, following the construction of a similar facility in the capital’s Troja neighbourhood.
