}}Chabelley Airport {{airport codes||HDCH}}, also known as the Chabelley Airfield, is an isolated airstrip in Chabelley, located some 6 miles to the southwest of Djibouti City, the capital of Djibouti.[1]

Military

Although it is operated and used by the French military,[2] in September 2013, it began serving as a temporary base for U.S. military unmanned aircraft.[3][4] The move came after the Djiboutian government expressed concern over a number of recent drone mishaps and accidents at the American Camp Lemonnier Naval Expeditionary Base, which serves as a hub for counterterrorism operations in Yemen and Somalia. The Djiboutian authorities consequently asked U.S. officials to relocate the drones to the rarely used Chabelley Airfield.[3] Thitherto, the Chabelley airstrip had been exclusively reserved in case of need for French military devices.[4] The U.S. Air Force’s 870th Air Expeditionary Squadron operates from the airfield.[2]
