  • ZHARE DASHT,AFGHANISTAN - SEPT. 3: Afghans, mainly Pashtuns and Kuchi nomads who were living in camps around Spin Boldak, near the border of Pakistan and southern Afghanistan, are relocated to the desolate, dusty encamptment of Zhare Dasht by the UNHCR September 3, 2002.  As an estimated 1.6 million Afghan refugees return to Afghanistan,  ethnic Pashtuns from northern Afghanistan are seeking safety in refugee camps in the south. Numbering up to 120,000,  Pashtuns are fleeing the Tajik- and Uzbek-dominated cities of the north out of fear and prefer to live in the dismal camps like Zhare Dasht which is set in the middle of a desert about 30 kilometers west of Kandahar.
