Kabul, Afghanistan: Pakistani security forces have shut down several long-standing Afghan refugee camps in Balochistan, displacing thousands of residents and demolishing their homes and shops, Tolo News reported.

Camps in Loralai, Gardi Jungle, Saranan, Zhob, Qala-e-Saifullah, Pishin, and Muslim Bagh have been affected.

Refugees say they were forced out suddenly without being allowed to gather their belongings.

Bashir Ahmad, a resident of the Gardi Jungle camp, said, "I wasn't even given time to collect my belongings. They told me that if I didn't leave my house, they would burn everything."

Civil aid workers have called on Islamabad to uphold human rights in the process.
