Kyrgyz Nomads Stranded in the Isolated Mountain Range | SLICE

Wakhan in the Pamir region of Eastern Afghanistan is home to the last Kyrgyz nomads who live in the most isolated high-altitude community on the planet. Tucked away in their mountain camps at 4,300 metres above sea level, only 1,200 of them survive as best they can. They live just a few miles away from China, Tajikistan and Pakistan. But history has closed the borders to them. There are no schools and no vehicles; there is no electricity and no cultivation here. Will these people survive here, or must they start looking for a future elsewhere?
