The United Nations called on the government of Pakistan to immediately suspend the forced deportation of Afghan migrants from the country. This call comes as the UN urges Islamabad to continue offering support to vulnerable individuals and those seeking refuge within its borders.
Since August 2021, Pakistan has provided shelter for various vulnerable groups, including human rights activists, women’s rights advocates, former military personnel, journalists, political activists, and other at-risk individuals who fled Afghanistan. However, the recent decision by the Pakistani government to forcibly expel these individuals has raised significant concerns about their safety and well-being.
