Ukraine's population has plummeted by around 10 million, or 25%, due to refugees leaving, a significant drop in fertility rates, and war-related casualties, according to UN data.
The invasion has accelerated an already evident population decline that began before the war, with the largest deterioration attributed to 6.7 million refugees living abroad.
Fertility rates have collapsed to around one child per woman, far below the 2.1 needed for a stable population, indicating a broader demographic crisis in Ukraine.
Accurate data won't be ascertainable until after the conflict, highlighting the uncertainty surrounding the true impact of the war on Ukraine's demographic landscape.
