Afghan returnees seeks Taliban support as winter approaches

Refugees, who have recently returned to Afghanistan and are now residing in designated camps, have urged the Taliban to provide them shelter, employment opportunities and access to necessary supplies as the winter season is approaching.

“We ask the Islamic Emirate to pay attention to our situation. We are sick and cannot work in this cold. We need help,” Afghanistan-based Tolo News quoted one Afghan



returnee, Aynuddin, as saying.

Khan Mohammad and Mohammad Awaz, who have returned to Afghanistan from Pakistan after 40 years, have expressed hope that the Taliban will help them get through the winter and added, “After that, we will try to rebuild our lives.” Mohammad Awaz said, “I have ten children, and I’m worried they’ll fall ill this winter. We ask the Islamic Emirate to provide us with facilities.”
