For @newhumanitarian I went to Islam Qala, Herat, to speak to Afghans forced to leave Iran, how Israel’s bombings increased anti-Afghan xenophobia in Iran. I also spoke to @SavetheChildren @MAziziOfficial and @khyberkhaan about what’s being done to help thenewhumanitarian.org/news-feature/2…
Basit Eiraj interviews a young Afghan girl deported from Iran. Born and raised there, she breaks down over leaving her friends and fears losing access to education in Afghanistan. Heartbreaking. Must-watch with English subtitles via @TOLO_TV
Last week, I was in Islam Qala, near the border with Iran, to report for @newhumanitarian on the hundreds of thousands of Afghans who have been expelled from Iran this year, especially after Israel’s bombings of the Islamic Republic. I also spoke to @SavetheChildren there
Thousands of #Afghan families are returning from #Iran, many with only the clothes on their backs. Over 80,000 children crossed into #Afghanistan in June alone. They face hunger, fear, and an uncertain future. The world must not look away. @SaveAfg #SavetheChildren
I just returned from Islam Qala, where I witnessed chaotic scenes as thousands of Afghans -many exhausted, hungry, & without belongings - were arriving from #Iran. The scale of returns is alarming, and the humanitarian response is nowhere near enough. #Afghanistan @Save_Afg
The event that defines AfghanAtalan and the emerging stars, the one that ignites the passion in the hearts of our youth, a celebration of joy and excitement for the nation ... and a symbol of beauty, energy, and Afghan identity. 🤩 Yesss, Shpageeza is now 10 years old, and the…
Number of arrivals from Iran into #Afghanistan continues to surge with 103k crossing in first 4 days of July, nearly half of June total. 1 million+ since start of 2025. 'Children are exhausted & afraid. They need food, they need shelter, they need stability', said @SSamiraSR
Promised support has evaporated. Clinics are closing, children are going hungry, and education programs are collapsing. This isn’t a natural decline in need - it’s a man-made disaster, the result of deliberate choices to disengage. Silence and inaction are no longer neutral.
What’s unfolding in Afghanistan is not simply a funding crisis - it is a political failure. The international community’s quiet retreat, driven by shifting priorities and fatigue, is leaving millions behind. harm.

#عزاداری مسولین امنیتی کابل برای مراسم عزاداری #عاشورا تدابیر محکم داشته اند. سالهای گذشته عزاداری در محضر عام ممنوع بود که نشانه نگرانی های امنیتی بود. ولی امسال عزاداری خانمها دو نوید دارد: ۱. امنیت #کابل محکم است. ۲. حضور خانم ها در مراسم اجتماعی، در حال قبول شدن است.

'Could (and should) private investors make up for US aid cuts in Afghanistan?' I spoke to @FAziziOfficial @binshah and @ABCDXB2005 about investing in Afghanistan and what role private investors can play in addressing the humanitarian need in the country thenewhumanitarian.org/analysis/2025/…
About 80,000 Afghan children crossed into #Afghanistan from #Iran in June as total arrivals more than doubled compared to May. "The new wave of returns is pushing an already overstretched system to the brink" @Save_Afg @Save_GlobalNews savethechildren.net/news/afghanist…

This video is from the same Afghanistan that many mock so often, yet here, despite limited resources, they managed to rescue people from a devastating flood. And this is just one of many such examples. Meanwhile, Pakistan brags about being able to down a Rafale , but can’t…
Totally agree. As a 2nd-gen Afghan born in Canada, I didn't face any of the struggles most new arrivals do - I was incredibly privileged in comparison. But let’s be honest - some post-2021 arrivals were handed more opportunity overnight than many of us could ever imagine.. free…
I find it grating to watch second-generation immigrants act as if they’ve endured the same struggles as newly arrived or recently naturalized refugees. They were born fluent, raised here, yet still after 20 years cling to the same sense of victimhood that the newly arrived are…
