Afghanistan Urges Return of Afghans Who Assisted U.S. Amid Resettlement Uncertainty
Afghanistan's foreign ministry has called on Afghans who assisted the U.S. during its military operations and are currently in Qatar to return home. This appeal follows reports of discussions between the U.S. and Congo regarding the potential relocation of approximately 1,100 Afghan refugees. These individuals, who have been residing at Camp As-Sayliyah in Doha, Qatar, are in limbo as the U.S. explores options for their resettlement. The Afghan government assures that there are no security threats in Afghanistan and invites these individuals to return with confidence. However, the refugees express concerns about potential reprisals from the Taliban, who have been in control since the U.S. withdrawal in 2021. The U.S. State Department is working to find voluntary resettlement options but has not confirmed specific countries involved in the discussions.
