Pakistan’s government has declared that all unregistered Afghan refugees must leave the country by November 1 or face deportation, raising concerns for over 200 Afghan journalists in exile and amplifying the challenges they face in the wake of the Taliban s crackdown on press freedom. The International Federation of Journalists (IFJ) and its affiliates, the Afghan Independent Journalists’ Union (AIJU), Afghanistan National Journalists’ Union (ANJU), and the Pakistan Federal Union of Journalists (PFUJ), strongly urge Pakistan’s government to reconsider the directive and call on media stakeholders, civil society organisations, and international governments to increase their support for Afghan journalists in exile.
