Trump Administration Plans Deportation of Afghan Immigrants via Pakistan Amid Safety Concerns
The Trump administration plans to deport over 150 Afghan immigrants, including relatives of US military allies, via Pakistan due to the lack of diplomatic ties with the Taliban. The deportations, expected to begin soon, raise concerns about the safety of those returned, as many could face persecution under Taliban rule. Rights advocates and veterans urge Congress to grant temporary protected status to these individuals, while the Homeland Security Department has not confirmed the operation, citing security reasons.
