after Israel attacks
\n Tehran
\nAfghan citizen Enayatullah Asghari watched dismayed after Israel and Iran launched strikes on each other last month, as the Gulf nation where he had sought refuge turned more hostile, work on Tehran building sites dried up and he was accused of spying.
\nAsghari, 35, is among tens of thousands of Afghans whom Iran has deported home in the past few weeks, in the fallout of a conflict the United Nations says risks further destabilising Afghanistan, already battling a humanitarian crisis.
\n\u201cIt is hard to even find a place to rent, and if you find one, the price is unaffordable … and there is no work at all,\u201d Asghari said at the end of his family\u2019s long journey back to western Afghanistan.
\nHe said he had no idea what to do next in his home country, marooned in international isolation since the Taliban took over in 2021.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
