A star of Afghanistan’s national women’s basketball team thought she would be in Canada by now, building a new life with her family after they were forced to flee their old one.
Instead, they’re stuck living in a northern Albania hotel, mired in uncertainty.
Dozens of female Afghan athletes who bravely represented their country at home and abroad are at the same hotel and in the same predicament — anxious for any news about their futures as they grow increasingly concerned for the family members they left behind.
“It’s very difficult,” the basketball player said. “We are waiting with no information.”
