Pakistan's crackdown on foreigners sends Afghans scrambling
A Pakistani crackdown on Afghans has seen some families handed deadlines of hours, or just minutes, to collect whatever they can and leave forever. Pakistan wants to expel three million Afghans by the end of this year, saying they are in the country illegally, but many have lived there for decades. Returning refugees head to a camp across the border, in Torkham, where thousands of Afghans arrive every week and face a new future in a country they don't know. Pakistan denies targeting Afghans and says everyone leaving is treated humanely and with dignity.
