Elite Afghan troops face deportation from Pakistan to Taliban-controlled Afghanistan | BBC News


About 200 members of Afghan special forces, trained and funded by the UK, face imminent deportation to their Taliban-controlled homeland, the BBC has learned.

The soldiers fled to Pakistan, which now has said it will expel Afghan refugees.

The UK said it has brought thousands of Afghans to safety.
