Refugee Crisis Grows, With Over One Million Ukrainians Displaced

As the third week of the Russian invasion approaches, ceasefires and citizen evacuations in Ukraine continue. More than 1.5 million refugees have fled the war-torn country in a matter of 10 days, making this the fastest-growing refugee crisis in Europe since World War II. Fox News Radio Foreign Correspondent Simon Owen joins from a refugee site in Poland to describe how Ukrainians are grappling with the prospect of a prolonged war in their country and the uncertainty surrounding when or if they can return to their homes and their lives.

The monthly jobs report released by the Labor Department last Friday reported the largest growth since July, adding 678,000 new jobs in the month of February.  The statistics paint a promising picture for Americans seeking new employment and higher wages, especially as inflation continues to surge across the economy.  John Bussey, associate editor at The Wall Street Journal joins the Rundown to discuss the strengths and nuances of the report, how interest rate hikes will impact Americans, and how small businesses are recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic.
