Pakistan expels tens of thousands of Afghans
bbc ^ | 04/19/2025 | Yama Bariz

Pakistan has deported more than 19,500 Afghans this month, among more than 80,000 who have left ahead of a 30 April deadline, according to the UN.

Pakistan has accelerated its drive to expel undocumented Afghans and those who had temporary permission to stay, saying it can no longer cope.

Between 700 and 800 families are being deported daily, Taliban officials say, with up to two million people expected to follow in the coming months.

Pakistani Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar flew to Kabul on Saturday for talks with Taliban officials. His counterpart Amir Khan Muttaqi expressed "deep concern" about deportations.

Some expelled Afghans at the border said they had been born in Pakistan after their families fled conflict.

More than 3.5 million Afghans have been living in Pakistan, according to the UN's refugee agency, including around 700,000 people who came after the Taliban takeover in 2021. The UN estimates that half are undocumented.

Pakistani SCOTUS rules that they MUST STOP.

Because, ya know, infiltrators/illegals must have due process...

That many afghanis need to go home and slaughter the talaban in their beds at night. It is their country, and they need to clean the mess up. Not just run away to another country.

“What did Judge Boasberg have to say about it?”

Doesn’t matter, unlike the US Supreme Court the Islamic Supreme Court of Pakistan has ruled that removing invaders is Constitutional, regardless of whether the president Shiite or a Sunni.

On the other foot, if Pakistan is their chosen location to be a refugee, you know they're coming from a pretty crappy place!
