President Trump's recent executive order halting the U.S. refugee admissions program has put tens of thousands of Afghans at risk, particularly those who supported U.S. efforts during the military operations in Afghanistan. Under Biden, approximately 200,000 Afghans were resettled, but many more are left in uncertainty and fear of Taliban persecution. Estimates suggest 40,000 to 60,000 Afghans seek refuge in the U.S., with some already approved for resettlement. Advocacy groups highlight the dire consequences of Trump's order for these vulnerable populations, who now face heightened risks of violence and oppression.
Tens of thousands of Afghans, who worked with the U.S. military, are now left in limbo due to Trump's executive order suspending the refugee program.
The suspension puts at risk thousands who received U.S. approval for resettlement, leaving them to hide from potential Taliban reprisals.
