Pakistan is not setting up any new camp to accommodate Afghan refugees trying to flee the war-ravaged neighbouring country after the Taliban seized power in Kabul, Interior Minister Sheikh Rasheed Ahmad has said. Mr. Rasheed said that there are no Afghan refugees at the border, and the government has not established any camp in the area. Mr. Rasheed's statement came on September 5, during his visit to the Torkham border, after reports that people were massing at the border and trying to enter Pakistan, which has already been hosting about 3 million Afghan refugees.More Related News
