Some 270,000 refugees from Ukraine have come to the Czech Republic, and authorities are already running out of resources to accept all those who want to stay in the country without problems, Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala said Thursday.

"We have to admit that we are at the very edge where we can accept refugees without problems," the Associated Press (AP) quoted the prime minister as saying.

According to the agency, most of the Ukrainian refugees are women and children.

AP notes that the Czech government is making efforts to issue permits to refugees for long-term stay in the country, to ensure their access to health care and education.

Parliament is also discussing a plan to allow refugees to work without work permits.
