Monitoring Desk: After throwing over 5000 Indians out of the country, Iran has deported over 600,000 Afghans so far in the post-Israel attack on Iran.
Reports suggest that recent geopolitical tensions, including Iran’s deportation of 600,000 Afghan migrants in July 2025 amid a post-war crackdown, highlight ongoing foreign influence, as Iranian intelligence networks believe that Indians and Afghans were collaborating to compromise Iran’s security at the instruction of Israel.
Pakistan in the past also launched a campaign to send illegal Afghans back to their country of origin, but the campaign is so far out of media focus, and without knowing, is this campaign over or continuing? This campaign got out of the news after Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar stated that Afghans are brothers and their repatriation should be soft and honourable.
According to the United Nations, more than half a million Afghans have been expelled from Iran in the 16 days since the conflict with Israel ended, reports CNN.
The report added that Tehran has declared its intention to remove the millions of undocumented Afghans. The International Organisation for Migration (IOM) has said 508,426 Afghans have left Iran via the Iranian-Afghan border between June 24 and July 9. Evidence has emerged that Afghan migrants had been assisting Israel and provided ground information to Israel and India during and before the Israeli attack on Iran and killings of top Iranian leadership and scientists is linked with the Indo-Afghan nexus working for Israel in Iran.
