Pakistan's plan to expel undocumented migrants, including Afghan refugees, has led to an exodus of tens or hundreds of thousands of Afghans fleeing to the border. The deadline for all foreigners without legal documents to leave the country or face forcible expulsion was set for November 1. Many Afghan families have been torn apart, and even those with valid papers have been pushed to leave the country due to state-backed harassment. The Taliban government in Afghanistan reports that recent daily returnee figures are three times higher than normal.
