اردوگاه مهاجرين افغاني در مرز دوغارون - مهمانشهر تربت جام

The photos presented here are from the camp for Afghan immigrants in Torbat-e Jam, Iran's Razavi Khorasan province, close to the Dogharoon border crossing with Afghanistan.  This is the main border crossing for the immigrants returning to Afghanistan. About 95% of the Afghans return home from this crossing.

Torbat-e Jam is an ancient city in the Razavi Khorasan state in north-eastern Iran. It is about 160 kilometres (99 miles) southwest of Mashhad, about 60 kilometres (35 miles) north of Taybad, and about 40 kilometres (25 miles) west of the Afghanistan border.
