Over one thousand Afghan migrants deported from Pakistan

The Ministry of Refugees and Repatriation of Afghanistan has announced the deportation of over one thousand Afghan migrants from Pakistan.

The ministry published a statement on June 1, saying that 1,203 Afghan migrants have re-entered the country after being expelled by Pakistan.

According to the ministry’s statement, these migrants returned to Afghanistan after being expelled by the Pakistani government.

The returnees re-entered the country through the Spin Boldak border in Kandahar province and the Torkham border in Nangarhar province.

Afghanistan is facing a dire situation marked by severe economic hardship, widespread poverty, and ongoing conflict. The instability has left millions struggling to meet basic needs, with humanitarian aid often falling short.

The forced deportation of Afghan migrants from neighboring countries, including Iran and Pakistan, has added to the country’s woes. Thousands of returnees face limited resources and support, further straining Afghanistan’s already fragile infrastructure.

Recent deadly floods have exacerbated the dire conditions, causing widespread destruction and displacement. The floods have not only taken lives but also destroyed homes and livelihoods, compounding the challenges faced by the Afghan population.
