UN Calls for Immediate Funding to Assist Afghans Returning from Iran and Pakistan

KABUL, AFGHANISTAN – The UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) has appealed for urgent funding to help thousands of Afghans forced to return from Iran and Pakistan, warning that its resources are running out.

In a post on X on Sunday, the agency said families face an uncertain future as they return to a country already hit by poverty and one of the world’s worst humanitarian crises.
