Finding Housing in Kabul, a Nearly Impossible Mission

The capital, with approximately eight million inhabitants, has expanded over the years and constantly sees new families arrive, especially since Pakistan and Iran have pushed more than 3.2 million Afghans to return to their country since 2023. Mohammed Mohsen Zaryab is among those desperately seeking a place to live in Kabul. The demand for housing is high, making it challenging to find a suitable accommodation. With the growing population and limited housing options, many face difficulties in securing a place to live in the city.
