Germany granted entry to 47 Afghans, scheduled to arrive in Hannover on Monday, September 1. Hundreds more are expected in the weeks ahead.
Following months of waiting in Pakistan, six Afghan families have been permitted to enter Germany. The 47 Afghans are set to fly via Istanbul to Hannover, backed by official admission approvals from the German government.
Authorities say they are among roughly 2,300 Afghans whom Germany pledged to protect following the Taliban’s takeover in summer 2021, while hundreds more continue to wait in Pakistan for their visas.
Upon arrival, the Afghans will first be received at the Friedland border transit camp before being distributed across various federal states. German administrative courts recently ruled that the government is legally obliged to honor its promises of admission (backed by official documentation).
AfD leader Alice Weidel criticized the move on X, claiming that Chancellor Merz had broken his earlier pledges by allowing the resettlement program to continue.
In recent weeks, around 450 Afghans with admission approvals were reportedly detained by Pakistani authorities, and more than 200 were deported to Afghanistan without documentation. This comes as part of an ongoing effort by the authorities in Pakistan to manage the problem of displaced Afghans inside the country.
