"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 10,000 of the said refugees returned from Türkiye, the official said, adding that 80,000 refugees returned home from Pakistan and the remaining 650,000 have returned from Iran.
