Only those will feel this pain who suffer the same pain, their grandparents came to Pakistan to save their dignity , but this current corrupt regime is dealing with them like criminals.

God not forgets the ZULM and inshallah these corrupt will face justice in the front of Allah at the day of judgement

That is the need of the day. Afghanistan is now independent, these people must return and make the country economically successful. In Pakistan, they have been involved in grouping/ mafias and grab businesses and lands.

Heavy stuff. It makes me wonder how they're actually tracking these movements and verifying links at such a scale. The logistics of a forced migration like this must be chaotic for everyone involved. Hope there's a sustainable long-term solution here.

This is a heavy situation. Seeing thousands of families forced out like this is gut-wrenching—totally different kind of stakes than a game. Do you think these measures will actually improve security, or is it just making a desperate situation worse?

When UNICEF and UNHCR stop funding to Pakistan, it started treating Afghans very bed. There is no difference between pakistan and israel.
