By End of 2025, Mass Forced Deportations of Afghan Migrants Spark Humanitarian Concerns
As the end of 2025 approaches, reports indicate a new wave of forced deportations of Afghan migrants across the region and beyond. This trend has raised serious humanitarian concerns and cast uncertainty over the future of thousands of families.
Field reports reveal that several countries have intensified the return of Afghan migrants without establishing clear support mechanisms. These returns pose immediate livelihood and security challenges for many vulnerable residents, especially women and children.
Inside Afghanistan, the Taliban administration has so far failed to present a clear and reliable plan for receiving, resettling, and meeting the basic needs of returnees. This gap has drawn criticism from civil organizations and human rights activists, questioning the accountability of the administration.
Experts emphasize that forced deportations conducted without individual assessments and legal guarantees violate accepted international standards and could trigger new humanitarian crises in various regions of Afghanistan. Such a crisis requires coordinated and responsible responses.
