Explanation

Bagram Air Base, also known as Bagram Airfield, is located in Afghanistan, specifically in the Parwan Province. It is situated approximately 40 to 50 kilometers north of the capital city, Kabul. Originally constructed by the Soviet Union in the 1950s, the base served as a major hub for Soviet operations during the 1980s. Following the 2001 invasion, it became the primary center for U.S. and NATO coalition military operations, logistics, and intelligence for nearly two decades. The facility features two significant runways and extensive support infrastructure. In July 2021, U.S. forces withdrew from the base, handing control over to the Afghan Armed Forces shortly before the Taliban's takeover of the country. It remains one of the most strategically significant and well-equipped military installations in the region.
