‘Why am I being sent back?’ Hurt, anger for Afghans pushed out by Pakistan

Pakistan is starting a second phase of a controversial plan to deport hundreds of thousands of Afghan refugees living in the country.

Over half a million undocumented Afghan nationals have been expelled since last October. The government is extending its deportation plan - to include many Afghans who hold Pakistani documents.

Many Afghans in Pakistan say they're heartbroken at being forced to leave a place they call home.
