Approximately 3,250 Afghans who are eligible for resettlement in the UK are stuck in accommodation in Pakistan
Afghan refugees cross the border out of Pakistan at the Torkham crossing on Friday due to Islamabad’s deadline for all illegal residents to leave the country by 1 November and September 2023, according to a response from the Foreign Office to a written question from an MP published on Wednesday.
From there, they could apply for resettlement in the UK under two schemes: the Afghan Relocations and Assistance Policy for those who worked with the British, and the Afghan Citizens Resettlement scheme for at-risk civilians.understands that the Ministry of Defence is using spare capacity at its sites as a temporary measure, before moving individuals and families on to pre-approved accommodation across the UK.
But Afghans who have not been confirmed as part of the schemes are being advised not to travel to the airport in Islamabad, Pakistan’s capital. “From failing to deal with a ballooning backlog of ARAP applications to spending millions on hotels in Pakistan, Afghans have been left in limbo, sometimes in fear for their lives,” he said.
