KABUL (SW) – The United Nations World Food Program (WFP) in Afghanistan has announced that more than 500,000 Afghan returnees from Pakistan need urgent aid.
On Tuesday, WFP wrote on the social media platform X that many of the Afghan citizens who were forcibly returned from Pakistan, live without any income or economic support.
WFP further noted, emphasizing the crucial requirement for aid to help them rebuild their lives.
Earlier, the Kandahar Department of Immigration and Returnee Affairs said that since the beginning of the forced deportation of Afghan immigrants from Pakistan, 165,200 Afghan migrants have returned to this province through Spin Buldak in six months.
Afghan returnees from Pakistan have reported facing significant challenges as they claim that Pakistani police confiscated all their assets during the deportation process. According to them, this has led to numerous difficulties, and they assert that their basic needs have not been adequately addressed.
