Abdul Matlib Haqqani, spokesperson for the Ministry of Refugees, attributed most of these returns to Pakistan and Iran, stating that the process of forced returns from these countries, as well as from Turkey, continues unabated.


The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees has also stated in its annual report that at least 2.8 million Afghan citizens returned from Iran and Pakistan this year. According to this report, approximately 1.8 million people were returned from Iran and 930,000 from Pakistan to Afghanistan.


The United Nations has warned about the situation of returnees, particularly women and girls, emphasizing that the current human rights conditions in Afghanistan expose them to "serious protection risks." The High Commissioner for Refugees has also reported that returns of Afghans from Tajikistan continued this year, with at least 1,700 people repatriated from that country.


Human rights organizations say that a number of refugees, after returning from Iran, have faced arbitrary detentions, torture, and even extrajudicial killings. Documented cases indicate repeated violence against returnees, and the families of the victims hold the Taliban responsible for this violence.


These figures show that the process of forced return of Afghan citizens from neighboring countries continues, and concerns about their protection status have intensified, especially amid conditions in which the rights of women and girls in Afghanistan have been restricted.

The Taliban's Ministry of Refugees announced that in the year 2025 AD, more than three million Afghan migrants were expelled from neighboring countries and returned to Afghanistan.
