750 refugees from Ukraine will be moving into tents at the Electric Picnic site from Tuesday.

Refugees will be moved into tented accommodation at the site in Co Laois, after festival goers depart following the three-day event.

The Government says 10,000 refugees from the war-torn country have arrived here since the start of May.

The ongoing shortage in accommodation led to the Government's decision to use temporary tented accommodation on the site in Stradbally for six weeks.
