The settled Afghani refugee communuity living in Golshahr in Mashhad, Iran’s holiest city. Millions of Afghanis have been living here in the past decades. Many have illegally married to Iranians and now have Irano-Afghani kids which further complicate the decision to stay in Iran or go back to Afghanistan. Most intend to stay in Iran because of better job opportunities, education and social conditions for girls and women.
