Iran has ordered nearly 4 million Afghan refugees and migrants to leave the country within a specified deadline or risk arrest and deportation. This follows a crackdown that began in 2023 targeting undocumented migrants. Over 700,000 Afghans have already left, and thousands continue to be deported daily. Human rights groups warn that this mass expulsion could exacerbate Afghanistan’s humanitarian crisis. Anti-Afghan sentiment is rising in Iran, with allegations of Afghan collaboration with Israeli intelligence adding to tensions.
