Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - Kabul: In the report of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees published today (Wednesday, June 14, 2023), it is stated that at the end of last year (2022), 108.4 million people around the world due to Persecution, conflict, violence, human rights violations and natural disasters forced them to be displaced.
 
According to this organization, the number of displaced people in the world has reached more than 110 million people.
 
According to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, the number of refugees worldwide increased from 27.1 million in 2021 to 35.3 million by the end of 2022, the largest annual increase on record.
 
According to this organization, more than one out of every 74 people on earth has been forced to flee.
 
The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees has said that Russia's invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 created the fastest-growing displacement crisis and one of the largest since World War II.
 
According to the organization, at the end of 2022, a total of 11.6 million Ukrainians remained displaced, including 5.9 million within their own country and 5.7 million who fled to neighboring countries and beyond.
 
The United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees added that overall, 52 percent of all refugees and other people in need of international support are from only three countries: Syria with 6.5 million displaced, Ukraine and Afghanistan each with 5. 7 million people.
 
In Afghanistan, the establishment of the Islamic Emirate in August 2021 caused a massive migration of citizens of this country. The destination of most of these immigrants was Afghanistan's neighboring countries, including Iran and Pakistan.
