What happened in Afghanistan? People are dying because of this attack. Many Afghans are now homeless and a growing number of families have to live as refugees. This problem has impacted many people around the world. Organizations, governments and the United Nations are struggling to find a way to help. It is very sad that a lot of people had to work hard for their jobs and their homes. Now, Afghanistan refugees are affected by poverty. Who caused this and why?
In 1996, a group of terrorists, named the Taliban, took over the rule of Afghanistan. During this time, women were forced to stay at home and young girls were forced into marriage. Not only this, Afghanistan had suffered for over 40 years from other problems, including: economic issues, conflict, natural disasters and poverty. Life in Afghanistan was hard until 2001, when the American twin towers were destroyed by the Taliban army. Lots of American citizens died in that catastrophic event. As a result, the U.S sent their army to fight with the Taliban in Afghanistan. This was good for the population of Afghanistan. They finally got their freedom back.
However, on April 14 2021, Joe Biden made a decision to remove the United States army from Afghanistan. The Taliban went back to rule. Lots of families didn't know what to do or where to go. Many citizens wanted to escape to other countries to save and help their families.
Now, the population of Afghanistan has the largest number of refugees in the world. This means there are 2.6 million Afghanistan refugees worldwide. The United Nations is hoping that many more Afghans can escape by the end of 2021.
In conclusion, the refugees of Afghanistan were made because they had no other choice. In my opinion, this is a very difficult problem that families are dealing with. We have to respect the refugees and show empathy for their families. The United Nations and many other organizations have been looking for ways on how to solve this problem. Afghanistan needs to find a solution for its people with the help of the rest of the world.
