Afghanistan - October 31, 2001
The image below is a post-strike aerial of a location called the Tarnak Farms, near Kandahar. According to the DoD, it is one of the major al Qaeda training camps funded by Osama bin Laden.
Al Qaeda reportedly used to use this facility to train terrorist and small-unit combat operations.
As is visible from the image below, much of the facility has been damaged or destroyed; the bombing having taken place "over the course of the last couple of weeks".
