UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) Filippo Grandi, who visited a repatriation centre outside Peshawar, the capital of Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, called on the international community to invest more funds to help the refugees.

 “My appeal is that, not only to the authorities but also to the local population: refugees as you know are not terrorists,” Grandi said.

Pakistani officials have recently hinted at the possibility of deporting Afghan refugees, amid tense relations with Kabul.
