Worries among army families at Larkhill, Wiltshire, have surfaced regarding the resettlement of Afghan refugees on the military estate. Reports indicate discomfort among soldiers' wives due to Afghan refugees, relocated under the Afghan Relocations and Assistance Policy, taking photographs of their children. Despite some viewing these actions as innocent, concerns over safeguarding have prompted anxiety.

In response to raised anxieties, the Ministry of Defence issued a cautionary directive to troops and civilian staff at Larkhill. The directive, emphasizing adherence to social media guidelines and acceptable behavior, warns of potential disciplinary action for publicly airing such complaints. The resettlement aims to protect Afghan families at risk from Taliban retaliation for their collaboration with British forces.
