The US authorities destroyed with the help of a controlled explosion the final reference point of the central intelligence department (CIA) outside the airport in Kabul. As the New York Times newspaper reported, we are talking about Eagle Base’s externalpost, on whose territory the security forces of Afghanistan passed counter-terrorism training.
During the work, service documents, computer hard drives and other important equipment were destroyed in order to prevent them from entering the Taliban movement. The abruptness of the advance was carried out “a few hours after the terrorist attack at the Kabul airport on Thursday,” but the decision is not related to these events, it was planned in advance.
The dismantling of the object was a challenging task, one of the CIA contractors told. The base was “designed so that it is impossible to penetrate it,” indicates the newspaper. The walls around it reached the height of 3 m.
