Iran and Pakistan Expel Nearly 2,000 Afghanistani Migrants in One Day

Published 10/07/2024

RASC News Agency: Nearly 2,000 Afghanistani migrants were expelled from Iran and Pakistan in a single day, returning to their home country. In a press release, the Taliban-led Ministry of Refugees stated that on Tuesday, July 19, a total of 1,808 Afghanistani migrants were deported from Iran and Pakistan, either forcibly or voluntarily.

 

According to the press release, Iran expelled 1,466 migrants, while Pakistan deported 342 Afghanistani nationals. A significant number of these migrants were forcibly expelled. The press release also mentioned that 342 individuals entered Afghanistan through the Torkham crossing, while 1,466 others returned via the Silk Bridge border.

 

This development follows the expulsion of more than 18,000 Afghanistani migrants by Iran and Pakistan, both forcibly and voluntarily, over the past six days. The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) recently announced that Pakistan has suspended the forced expulsion of Afghanistani migrants. Previously, the UNHCR had reported holding discussions with the Pakistani government regarding Afghanistani migrants. The agency stated that the Pakistani government had pledged to support Afghanistani migrants and provide opportunities for their growth.

 

Today, news emerged that Pakistan has officially suspended the expulsion of Afghanistani migrants. Earlier, Pakistan had called on the international community to support its efforts to assist and provide growth opportunities for Afghanistani migrants. Despite these developments, approximately 1,000 Afghanistani migrants continue to be expelled from Pakistan daily.

 

It is also worth noting that Iran has intensified its deportation process, forcibly expelling large numbers of Afghanistani migrants on a daily basis.
