Dear caring soul,

The 35 (and many other) Afghan women human rights defenders we are fighting for have sent another desperate plea for help. Their visas are being denied, and forced deportation is imminent. If sent back to Afghanistan, they will be killed.

📢 Their words, in their own voice:

"The lives of us, human rights defenders, women’s rights activists, and journalists, are in grave danger. We, Afghans, are on the verge of forced deportation. The Pakistani government refuses to extend our visas, and we face the constant threat of expulsion. But returning to Afghanistan means certain death—the Taliban will not let us live.

"We are in an extremely dangerous and desperate situation. If the world does not act now, countless lives will be lost.

"We urgently plead for your support: Please help us and push our cases forward before it’s too late. Your immediate action and support are crucial for our survival. We cannot face this alone—our lives depend on your help."

💔 Their fear is real. Their lives are on the line.
