Forced deportation; Germany returns 31 Afghan citizens to Kabul

Elaha Wed Jul 2026 1 month ago 359

Deutsche Welle, citing the German news agency "DPA," reported that the plane carrying these individuals took off from Leipzig-Halle Airport on the evening of Monday (August 5) bound for Kabul.


Alexander Dobrindt, Germany's Federal Interior Minister, confirmed the action and stated that 31 Afghan citizens had been deported from the country, most of whom had a history of committing crimes.


According to him, the majority of those deported had been convicted or accused of serious crimes, including murder, rape, and violence. He added that only one person in the group had not committed a crime; however, under immigration laws, that individual was required to leave German soil.


Germany's Interior Minister also announced that in recent weeks, state authorities had been informed that, going forward, it would be possible to deport asylum seekers whose refugee claims had been rejected.


These deportations are being carried out based on an agreement reached between the German government and the Taliban administration. Under this agreement, Berlin can return Afghan criminal citizens to Afghanistan without needing the cooperation of an intermediary country; whereas in the past, such processes were conducted with the involvement of a third government.


Nevertheless, this action has been met with critical responses from human rights organizations. These groups emphasize that the current conditions in Afghanistan are not safe for returning asylum seekers and that their deportation could entail serious risks.

The German government, continuing its policy of deporting Afghan citizens who have committed crimes, transferred 31 Afghan asylum seekers to Kabul.
