Afghans, who make up the majority of illegal immigrants in Pakistan, number about 4.4 million, including those who fled after the former Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan in 1979. Among them, about 1.73 million people are known to be illegal immigrants without documents.

It is reported that approximately 300,000 Afghans have returned home since the start of the deportation policy.

This deportation policy is causing controversy over human rights violations.

International human rights groups are demanding an end to the policy, saying that human rights violations are occurring while the Pakistani authorities are searching for and deporting illegal Afghans, and Afghans who have returned after being deported are facing a serious crisis of livelihood.

And by that will we have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. (Hebrews 10:10)

Let everything that has breath praise the Lord!

Praise the Lord! (Psalm 150:6)

Amen. God, thank you for allowing the precious blood of Jesus Christ for us. All who breathe will praise and praise the great grace of God.

God, currently, the Pakistani government is deporting a large number of illegal immigrants from Afghanistan. However, because their livelihood is not guaranteed and due process was not followed, Afghans are expelled and are experiencing many hardships.

Jesus had compassion and loved us so much that he died on the cross.

We received life through the power of love and were raised as people who love one another.

May this grace be among the people of Pakistan and Afghanistan.

May the love of Jesus cover both nations. May they be compassionate to each other and help each other as God's holy people.

So, let them praise the name of God who brought peace and taught them love! May God’s kingdom come to this earth!
