PESHAWAR (Pajhwok): Nearly 200 registered Afghan families returned to their country on Monday when the repatriation process resumed after a winter break, the United Nations says.
During the harsh weather conditions in Afghanistan, the UNHCR-supported voluntary repatriation process remained suspended from December 1, 2016 to February 2017.
However, the suspension continued for one more month as Pakistan slammed shut all border crossings after a series of terrorist attacks. Afghanistan-based militants were blamed for the assaults.
