From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Abu Obeida training camp is a military training camp in Afghanistan, believed to be associated with al Qaeda.[1][3][4]
American intelligence analysts reports of its location are inconsistent.[4] They placed the camp in both Nangarhar Province in Afghanistan's Northeast, across the border with Pakistan's Kyber Agency, and in Kandahar Province in Afghanistan's South.

- During his second annual Administrative Review Board hearing in 2006 he faced the allegations:
-
- The detainee attended the Abu Abaida Training Camp. The detainee was trained on the Kalashnikov rifle.
- The detainee trained with weapons for one week at the Abu Abaida Training Camp, also known as Tarnak Farms near the Kandahar Airport in Afghanistan.
- The Tarnak Farms facility in Afghanistan housed an al Qaida poison and explosive training laboratory and an advanced operational training camp. The Tarnak Farms camp was considered the most important al Qaida training camp in Afghanistan since it was where al Qaida operatives received advanced operational training including urban assault and other tactics.

- Al Sawah acknowledged providing training.[3]
- However, the allegations presented to his Tribunal said he had provided training at al Farouq training camp when he really provided that training at Abu Abaida.[3]
