– About 600 displaced Afghans returned to their villages on Sunday in northern Badakhshan province from an Afghanistan-Tajikistan border area, provincial Governor Maulvi Amanuddin Mansoor said Monday.
The returnees were displaced during clashes prior to the Taliban’s takeover of capital Kabul in mid-August, Mansoor told reporters.
“They were living in a dire situation on an open ground. They returned after provincial officials ensured their security,” he said.
Efforts are underway to help all displaced people return to their villages at an early date in the mountainous region as winter is approaching, he said. Enditem
