TL;DR

Pakistan has ordered all illegal immigrants, including 1.73 million Afghan nationals, to leave the country or face expulsion, following the revelation that 14 out of 24 suicide bombings in Pakistan this year were carried out by Afghan nationals. The announcement further strains relations between Pakistan and Afghanistan, and it remains unclear how Pakistani authorities will ensure the departure of these immigrants. The deadline for voluntary departure is November 1, after which forcible expulsion may occur.
