About 740,000 Afghan refugees have returned to their homeland of Afghanistan over the past six months, said Ministry of Refugees and Repatriation Affairs spokesman Abdul Mutalib Haqani.

"Roughly 740,000 Afghan refugees have returned home from the neighboring countries over the past six months," the state-run Radio and Television of Afghanistan quoted Mutalib Haqani as saying on Sunday.

About 650,000 refugees have returned from Iran, the official said, while 80,000 returned home from Pakistan and the remaining 10,000 came home from Türkiye.

Nearly 2 million Afghan refugees have returned home over the past year. Some 7 million Afghan refugees are reportedly still abroad, with the majority in neighboring Pakistan and Iran.
