Why are Afghan refugees stuck on the US-Mexico border?
They escaped Taliban violence and a humanitarian crisis but Afghan refugees are now stranded in Mexico
Two years after the Taliban stormed Kabul, thousands of people from Afghanistan tried to escape to the United States. Now many of them are stuck on the US-Mexico border.
