RASC News Agency: The World Food Program (WFP) has recently launched an appeal for $27.5 million to address the hardships faced by Afghanistani immigrants who were forcibly deported from Pakistan and returned to their home country. In a statement shared on its social media page on Saturday, November 25th, the organization expressed its limited funding to provide emergency assistance to the one million refugees who have been deported from Pakistan. Emphasizing the urgent need to aid these individuals, the World Food Program aims to reach one million people who are struggling to survive the harsh winter conditions.
Despite the efforts of Martin Griffiths, the United Nations Deputy Secretary General for Humanitarian Affairs, who allocated $10 million to meet the basic needs of Afghanistani refugees returning from Pakistan, the situation remains dire. The forced deportation of Afghanistani refugees from Pakistan continues to escalate, with thousands being deported and returning to their home country daily. Recent reports indicate that approximately 400,000 Afghanistani refugees have been arrested by Pakistani authorities and subsequently deported. These families, forcefully expelled from Pakistan, have expressed their dissatisfaction with their current living conditions and urgently requested assistance from international organizations.
It is crucial to highlight that the rise of the Taliban in Afghanistan has resulted in a significant number of young people leaving the country and seeking refuge in neighboring nations. The behavior exhibited by this group, following their takeover of the government, has contributed to the mass exodus of Afghanistani youth. Therefore, the World Food Program’s plea for financial support to address the challenges faced by Afghanistani immigrants is of utmost importance in providing them with essential aid and support during this challenging time. Immediate action is required to alleviate the suffering of these individuals and ensure their survival amidst the harsh winter conditions they now endure.
