Afghan Girl, Having Lost Parents to Violence, Finds Safety in Iran

Images have been posted on social media showing an Afghan girl who has trekked all the way to the Iranian border to take shelter in a country where people love her and she can find a safe place to live.

Having lost her parents in violence in her country, the little girl made it to the Iranian border where commandos of the Iranian Army stationed at no man’s land at Dogharoon border crossing picked her up and took her to safety.

The violence in Afghanistan has taken a huge material as well as human toll, making many children orphaned.

Thousands of Afghans have flocked to Iran-Afghanistan borders following the chaotic withdrawal of the US forces and the Taliban’s take-over of the country.
