The Ministry of Refugees and Repatriation (MoRR) has announced on Twitter that a total of 841 Afghan refugees returned to Afghanistan from Pakistan on Tuesday and Wednesday this week through the Spin Boldak crossing in Kandahar province.
The ministry said Friday the returning individuals consisted of 141 families, which amounts to 817 individuals, and 24 other individuals who returned separately. The ministry further stated that the Afghan returnees were facilitated by the Spin Boldak border command in Kandahar province.
The ministry meanwhile has called on the international community to provide more support for Afghan refugees who are returning to the country.
The Spin Boldak border crossing in Kandahar has played a key role in facilitating the return of Afghan refugees from Pakistan. The crossing is one of the busiest land routes between Afghanistan and Pakistan and serves as a major gateway for trade and commerce between the two countries.
