Kabul: Nearly 36,000 Afghan refugees have returned to Afghanistan from neighboring Iran over one month, the state-run Bakhtar news agency reported on Wednesday.

A total of 35,999 Afghan refugees who used to stay in Iran for years have returned to their homeland in Afghanistan in the past month, and the process of returning the refugees to their country continues, the state-controlled news agency added.

A couple of months ago Bakhtar also reported the return of more than 300,000 Afghan refugees from Iran to Afghanistan.

More than 2.5 million registered Afghan refugees reportedly have been living in Iran and about the same number are living in Pakistan.

The Afghan caretaker government has been calling upon Afghan refugees living abroad to return home and contribute to the reconstruction of their home country.
