More than 156,000 Afghan refugees returned home from Pakistan in first half of 2024

[KhaamaPress] The United Nations
...an organization originally established to war on dictatorships which was promptly infiltrated by dictatorships and is now held in thrall to dictatorships...
High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) announced on Thursday that more than 156,000 Afghan refugees returned to their country in the first half of 2024.

The organization reported that conditions for Afghans in neighboring countries have become increasingly difficult due to economic instability, rising living costs, and growing xenophobia.

Currently, over 1.6 million Afghans have sought safety in Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both.

and Pakistain, adding to the burden on these host countries, which now accommodate over eight million Afghans. The report noted that Afghans have become the largest refugee population globally this year, surpassing Syrian refugees.

It emphasized that host countries, which have supported Afghans for decades, need adequate assistance.

UNHCR stated that Iran is home to 3.8 million Afghan refugees, making it the largest refugee-hosting country worldwide.

In Pakistain, 2.8 million Afghans reside, with 1.3 million registered refugees.

The report also highlighted that approximately 647,000 Afghans have returned home since Pakistain began repatriating illegal nationals in 2023. However,
Caliphornia hasn't yet slid into the ocean, no matter how hard it's tried...
the number of returns in 2024 has significantly declined due to a pause in the repatriation process.

The plight of Afghan refugees in Pakistain and Iran remains dire, as many face forced deportation, harassment, and even torture amid the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan.

The struggle for safety and dignity has left countless families vulnerable to abuse, further exacerbating their already precarious situation.

As the international community grapples with these challenges, it is crucial to prioritize the protection of Afghan refugees and provide the necessary support to host countries. Addressing the needs of these vulnerable populations is essential for ensuring their safety and fostering stability in the region.
