Over 30,000 Afghan Migrants Repatriated in a Week

The Ministry of Refugees and Repatriation reports that in the past week, more than 30,000 Afghan migrants have returned to the country from Iran, Pakistan, and Turkey.

Abdul Matin Haqqani, the spokesperson for the ministry, told TOLOnews that most of the returnees are from Iran.

The spokesperson for the Ministry of Refugees and Repatriation said: "In the past week, more than 30,000 people have returned to their country. Among them, around 2,500 are from Pakistan, about 190 from Turkey, and the remaining from Iran."

Meanwhile, some Afghan migrants who had gone to neighboring countries for work have complained about the worsening living conditions and mistreatment in these countries.

Abdul Basir, an Afghan migrant in Iran, said: "For the past year, the problems have increased, and arrests by the police have also become more frequent. Our request of the Islamic Emirate is to provide job opportunities for us in our own country."

Some other migrants also expect the Islamic Emirate to address the situation of migrants in these countries as soon as possible.

Ehsan Khan, an Afghan migrant in Pakistan, said: "Any decision regarding Afghan migrants should first create the conditions for living in their own country."

This comes as Pakistan and Iran have recently announced that their plans to expel illegal migrants from their countries will be implemented in the near future.
