FDD’s Long War Journal assesses Shorabak as one of 45 of Afghanistan’s 407 districts that are currently under Taliban control.

In Oct. 2015, the US military raided two al Qaeda camps in Shorabak and killed more than 150 fighters. The outgoing commander of US forces in Afghanistan, General John Campbell, said that one of the camps in Shorabak, which encompassed 30 square miles, was the largest in Afghanistan since the US invaded in 2001.
