Police in Pakistan have begun demolishing homes belonging to Afghan refugees in the Sheikh Abad camp in Mansehra, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Videos circulating on social media show the destruction of shelters and residents in distress.
Local authorities have reportedly issued warnings to the refugees, ordering them to vacate the area immediately and return to Afghanistan. This move has left many families vulnerable and without shelter.
The demolition is part of a broader crackdown on Afghan refugees in Pakistan. Humanitarian groups continue to urge Islamabad to halt forced evictions and respect the rights of displaced Afghans living in the country.
