Over 200 Afghan refugee families deported from Iran and Pakistan
According to a report 204 Afghan refugee families deported from Iran and Pakistan within 24 hours period.
The Bakhtar News Agency, under Taliban control, reported that 204 Afghan refugee families were deported from Iran and Pakistan within a 24-hour period.
Among them, 58 families returned from Pakistan, and 146 families from Iran to Afghanistan.
The Agency stated on Friday, November 1, that these Afghan refugees were expelled through the Torkham, Spin Boldak, Islam Qala, and Pul-e-Abrisham border crossings.
On Tuesday, October 29, the agency reported the expulsion of another 268 Afghan refugee families from Iran and Pakistan, stating that these families returned to Afghanistan within one day via the same border points.
The forced deportation of Afghan refugees underscores the severe challenges they face, with thousands being returned to a country already suffering from a deep humanitarian crisis.
These refugees return to limited resources, lacking even basic shelter, food, and medical aid.
Afghan refugees are also reportedly enduring mistreatment and harassment before being deported. This difficult journey only intensifies their plight, as they face the risks of forced return amid ongoing conflict and instability in Afghanistan.
The lack of resources and international support for returning Afghan refugees leaves many vulnerable to further poverty and suffering.
