flag The U.S. offers $4,500 per person to Afghan nationals at a Qatar camp to return to Afghanistan before its closure in March 2026.

flag The U.S. State Department has begun offering financial incentives—$4,500 per person and $1,200 per family member—to Afghan nationals stranded at Camp As Sayliyah in Qatar to encourage voluntary return to Afghanistan ahead of the facility’s closure by March 2026. flag Over 1,100 individuals, including former U.S. allies and family members of service members, have been held since resettlement efforts were paused. flag While officials say the repatriation is not forced and third-country resettlement is preferred, critics argue the payments are coercive due to limited alternatives and ongoing security risks under Taliban rule. flag Around 150 have accepted the offers, but the State Department has not disclosed their current status or broader relocation plans.
