Minority Groups Flee Afghanistan; The Second Group of Afghan Sikhs leave the Country

 

Jade-Abresham(Silk Way): A 30-member group of Afghan Sikhs left Afghanistan and arrived in India on 3 August.

The VOA quoting Mahider Sing, an Afghan Sikh who newly arrived in Delhi, wrote there are terror groups besides the Taliban that target the religious and ethnic minority groups.

Afghan Sikhs have been repeatedly under attack by terrorist groups, killing and wounding many of them and destroying their worship temples, in Afghanistan in recent years.

In the latest attack of ISIS on a Sikhs temple in Karte 4 of Kabul, two people were killed and 7 wounded.

Before Kabul fell, about 300 Sikh households lived in Afghanistan. However, there are only 110 households in Afghanistan now.

According to Indian news outlets, visas for 61 more Sikhs have been processed and they will soon be evacuated to India.
