Refugees in Lower Saxony: Reception camp after deployment in Afghanistan!

A dramatic moment at Erfurt Airport: Former local Bundeswehr staff from Afghanistan have finally arrived in Germany! These brave men and women who fought alongside German troops during NATO missions from 2001 to 2021 have now begun a new chapter in their lives. Their arrival is a significant step after the Taliban took control of Afghanistan in 2021 and the security situation deteriorated dramatically.

After landing, the refugees were immediately received by employees of the Federal Office for Migration and Refugees. In a well-organized process, they were taken by bus to a reception center in Friesland, Lower Saxony. There they receive the support they need to find their way in their new life. This action is not only a sign of gratitude, but also an important step towards upholding human rights and supporting those who fought for the values ​​of freedom and democracy in Afghanistan.

A new beginning for the local staff

The return of these former local workers is of great importance as they are often the target of repression and violence by the Taliban. Germany is committed to offering protection to these brave people who have put their safety and that of their families at risk. Her arrival in Erfurt not only marks a new beginning for her, but also a strong signal of solidarity and responsibility from Germany.
