Several Afghan refugees in Pakistan who were promised relocation to the US are now facing deportation, CNN reports. For Afghans who served the US military, returning to a Taliban regime could be a death sentence. One expert told CNN many Afghans have yet to receive visas because the US has not established a processing center in Pakistan.

Meanwhile, the State Department told the outlet in a statement that staff in Pakistan are actively working to expand their processing capacity.
