Pakistan extended the deadline for the deportation of Afghan refugees to September 1, 2025. Approximately 1.4 million Afghans are registered with the UN, and an additional 800,000 hold Afghan Citizen Cards, which Islamabad deems illegal. The UN welcomes the extension but warns against forced deportation, emphasizing the principle of non-refoulement.
