聯合國表示目前仍有 1.178 億人無法回到家中居住。2025 年有 1,500 萬人返鄉。這些人大多回到了五個國家：阿富汗、敘利亞、蘇丹、南蘇丹和烏克蘭。
In Syria, the old leader left in 2024. Because of this, millions of people went back home. Many people feel safer now. But the houses and roads are broken, and life is expensive in other countries.
在敘利亞，舊領導人在 2024 年離開。因此，數百萬人回到了家中。許多人現在感到更安全。但房屋和道路已毀壞，且在其他國家生活成本高昂。
In Afghanistan, the situation is different. Many people did not want to go back. Iran and Pakistan forced two million Afghans to leave. These people are poor. Many have no food or doctors.
在阿富汗，情況有所不同。許多人不想回去。伊朗和巴基斯坦強迫 200 萬名阿富汗人離開。這些人很貧窮，許多人缺乏食物或醫療資源。

The number of displaced people is lower. But these people will only be safe if their countries have food, jobs, and peace.
流離失所的人數降低了。但只有在他們的國家擁有食物、工作與和平的情況下，這些人才會真正安全。
