517 Afghan Families Registered Crossing Border in Single Day

| Afghanistan War

The Taliban's Commission for Addressing Returnees' Issues registered 517 families (2,719 individuals) entering Afghanistan via the Torkham, Spin Boldak, and Silk Bridge crossings on June 20, 2026, with the largest share — 388 families (2,064 people) — crossing at Torkham. The figure reflects the continued high tempo of returns/deportations from Pakistan and Iran that has strained Afghanistan's reception capacity through the year.
