Desperate Afghans turn to people smugglers for help fleeing the country
The evacuation flights out of Afghanistan may have largely stopped, but with international funding largely frozen, and a humanitarian crisis escalating, thousands are still desperate to find a way out.
The remote town of Zaranj, close to the borders of both Pakistan and Iran, is a major people smuggling hub.
Traffickers there told BBC Afghanistan correspondent Secunder Kermani the number of Afghans leaving the country had more than doubled since the Taliban takeover.
