73 people died in a bus accident in Afghanistan. 17 children are among the dead.
A Taliban official told BBC Pashto that most of the people are Afghan migrants who were expelled from Iran.
The Taliban's director of information and culture, Ahmadullah Muktaki, was on fire in a bus going to Kabul. All passengers in the bus are said to have died. In addition, two other people in two vehicles that collided with the bus have also died.
Recently, the campaign to forcibly evict Afghan citizens who fled the internal conflict in Iran has been intensified.
During the Soviet invasion in the 1970s and since the Taliban came to power in 2021, Afghan citizens have left the country in large numbers.
According to the United Nations Refugee Agency, more than 1.5 million Afghans have left the country since January 2025.
