What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Committee to Protect Journalists, Reporters Without Borders, and Free Press Unlimited jointly called on Pakistan to stop the forced deportation of journalists. Reporters Without Borders documented at least 20 forced deportations in 2025 and further arrests in 2026, even among those holding valid visas. These actions concern the non-refoulement principle, as returning journalists exposes them to the Taliban regime.
