Afghanistan recorded the return of 6,202 refugees from Iran and Pakistan on Friday, officials confirmed.
Hundreds of Afghan refugees, including newborns and pregnant women, are living in Islamabad park under plastic sheets with nowhere to go. It's after landlords evicted them following pressure from Pakistan to expel documented, as well as undocumented, families ahead of a 1 September deadline.
The United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR) calls on the international community to urgently increase funding to protect more than 1.4 million people who have returned or been forced to return to Afghanistan so far this year, including more than 1 million from Iran.
The UN warns that over a million Afghan refugees in Pakistan face worsening conditions as U.S. aid cuts threaten critical services, including healthcare, amid urgent calls for international support.
