Camp Qargha was an Afghan National Army facility which was home to its Officer Academy. The Afghan Army was supported by mentors from the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand and Denmark. The facility was located in Kabul, about six miles (9.6 km) from the Hamid Karzai International Airport (HKIA).[1] Camp Qargha was later used to treat drug addicts.[2] In 2026 it would become the central topic of an airstrike.
