Somewhere between 500 and 2,000 Afghan refugees are now estimated to be entering Turkey every day after undertaking the long and arduous journey from Afghanistan.
Afghans are one of the largest irregular migrant groups in Turkey. From the period 2003-2007, the number of Afghans apprehended was significant, with statistics almost doubling during the last year. Most had fled the War in Afghanistan.
After Taliban forces had seized Kabul, the capital of Afghanistan, thousands of Afghans who worked alongside US occupation troops fled the country, seeking asylum in other countries. (ILKHA)
