This exact number coming from the Police and Border Guard, who are counting new arrivals from Ukraine when they enter the country.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\">Of those, 24,076 have already registered for temporary protection. The Temporary Protection Directive, which was introduced by the EU, makes it possible for persons from non-EU countries to receive quick and effective assistance. This includes the right to medical care, suitable education, accommodation, banking, temporary right of residence for up to 3 years, and the possibility to work.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\">With Estonia\u2019s small population of just 1.33 million, this influx means that Ukrainian refugees now make up 2.5 per cent of Estonia\u2019s population. On average, over the past month, around 300 Ukrainians have entered Estonia each day with an intention to stay. Most are staying with family and friends.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\" style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"s1\">Source: <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/news.err.ee\/1608591349\/over-36-000-refugees-seeking-safety-in-estonia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s2\"><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">ERR<\/span> <\/span><\/a><span class=\"s1\"><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\" style=\"text-align: left;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As of Sunday, May 8, 36,672 Ukrainians have crossed the border into Estonia with an intention to stay.
