German authorities said a flight took off Friday morning carrying 81 Afghans, all of them men who had had asylum applications rejected. Chancellor Friedrich Merz said the deportation was carried out with the help of Qatar and preceded by weeks of negotiations. He also said there were contacts with Afghanistan, but didn't elaborate. More than 10 months ago.
