These people have been registered with the representative office of the International Organisation for Migration to receive humanitarian support.
Officials of the Ministry of Refugees of the Taliban recently announced that more than 952,000 Afghans have returned to Afghanistan from Iran, Pakistan, and some other countries in the past year.
However, with the presence of more than five million Afghan immigrants in Iran, Tehran has accelerated the process of forced deportation of Afghan immigrants in recent months.
Not long ago, Iran's Khorasan Razavi border guard commander said that since the beginning of this year, more than 224,000 Afghan migrants have been deported from Iran and handed over to the Taliban.
