Afghanistan disapproves Pakistan's stance on Afghan refugees
Afghan refugees are not involved in Pakistan's security problems: Zabihullah Mujahid.
Kabul: Zabihullah Mujahid, the spokesperson for the Islamic Emirate, has expressed discontent with Pakistan's treatment of Afghan refugees, calling for a reevaluation of Pakistan's plan.
According to Mujahid, Afghan refugees are not responsible for Pakistan's security issues, and he has urged Pakistan to reconsider its stance.
Mujahid emphasized that Afghan refugees residing in Pakistan should be allowed to leave the country voluntarily without facing any undue pressure.
This statement from the Islamic Emirate signifies growing tension in the relations between Kabul and Islamabad, which have been strained since clashes along the Durand Line last month.
On October 3, the Apex Committee, chaired by Caretaker Prime Minister Anwar-ul-Haq Kakar, made significant decisions, including the directive for all foreign nationals, including Afghan citizens, to leave Pakistan.
Caretaker Interior Minister Sarfraz Ahmad Bugti, during a press conference following the meeting, announced that after November 1, illegal foreigners would be deported, and entry into the country would require a valid visa and passport.
Bugti cited security concerns, revealing that 14 of the 24 suicide bombings in the country this year were carried out by Afghan citizens.
Pakistan is home to approximately 1.73 million Afghan nationals lacking legal documentation out of the 4.4 million Afghan refugees residing in the country.
The interior minister stated that there is evidence of attacks on Pakistan originating from inside Afghanistan, involving Afghan citizens.
