Jafar Seyedabadi, Director General of Foreign Nationals and Migrants Affairs in Khorasan Razavi Province, announced a significant surge in the voluntary return of undocumented Afghan nationals via the Dogharoon border crossing during the first half of the current year. The figures have nearly tripled compared to the same period last year.
Speaking at a meeting with Noor Mohammad Motawakel, the acting Consul General of Afghanistan in Mashhad, Seyedabadi reported that 966,000 Afghan nationals returned to their homeland via Dogharoon in the past six months, of whom 280,000 were residents of Khorasan Razavi.
He also emphasized Iran’s overarching policies, stating that for over four decades, the Islamic Republic has hosted migrants with a humane and generous approach, and continues to strive to regulate their residency and repatriation within the framework of the law.
