Blizu pola miliona Avganistanaca bi moglo da napusti zemlju usled krize, saopštila je Agencija za izbeglice Ujedinjenih nacija, UNHCR, apelujući na sve države oko Avganistana ostave otvorene granice za Avganistance koji traže bezbednost.
Keli Klemens, zamenica visokog komisionara UN za izbeglice, kaže da, iako nije viđen veliki odliv ljudi iz Avganistana u ovom trenutku, situacija u zemlji se razvila „mnogo brže nego što je iko očekivao.“
