Somthing that has had hardly had any coverage. Pakistan announced a crackdown on undocumented immigrants.in the first wave they will target known criminals. As soon as the announcement was made 370,000 Afghans left, Packistan plan to deport 2 million Afghans.
Living conditions in Afghanistan are dire. As a world we need to look at a global approach to dealing with this issue in a human way, it would take a much wiser man than me to have any idea how we can help the millions trying to leave Africa and other parts of the world. Whilst they are completely different issues, Considering how well the Muslim community have mobalized globally in protest against what is happening in Gaza, I'm not aware any protests in the uk against what is happening to two million fellow muslins in Packistan.

As the effects of climate change start to really hit home in Africa and the Indian sub-continent ten of millions of people face the prospect of crop failure, drought, loss of habitable and workable land and sadly, the inevitable deaths that will follow.
Where are these people supposed to relocate to or are they just expected to suck it up?

We do need a global solution, but while we are still seeing human greed being more important than human life we will never find a solution.
As you correctly point out there has been a dramatic rallying of support for those in Gaza, but this isn't something that just happened overnight, the Nakba never ended, it's been 75 years of hatred that has eventually got us to this point. For decades now we have been standing by while people that can trace their family life in a village on the West Bank through generations are getting kicked out because some family from Upstate New York chose to move onto their land. The anti-Israeli, more accurately anti-Zionist feelings have been growing and festering for years, the slaughter of 25-30,000 mostly innocent people in Gaza has focused peoples minds, that's all. BTW it's not only the Muslim community that have mobilsed, in fact I would hazard a guess that in many protests they are not even the biggest demographic.
You answered one of your own questions in your first line, 'Something that has had hardly any coverage'. I knew nothing about this prior to your post and I try to keep up with the news. Perhaps the war in Ukraine and bombing of Gaza are taking the headlines away from this. Perhaps elections both sides of the Atlantic and Trump's various legal issues are leading the news cycle. Maybe the upcoming Euros are taking up peoples energies. There are a myriad of potential reasons why this hasn't made it into the mainstream. I for one will try to take more notice of what is happening in this situation. That makes two of us who give a toss, but no nearer to finding anything approaching a solution.

This could be due the possibility that there is no solution which doesn't involve either
(a) another country or group of countries becoming involved in another country's internal governance; or
(b) another country or group of countries engaging in military expeditions with the aim of imposing their own moral/political/religious values on another country....
I know it's difficult for some to accept, but there are some problems which humanity, at this stage of development, simply lacks the ability to solve. I do not suggest that we should do nothing, but mitigation, or tinkering around the edges, may be all we CAN do, and even that presupposes that everyone agrees that something SHOULD be done.
Like the earlier posters, I too am at a loss, although not necessarily for the same reasons.
