Koro Toro

Koro Toro is a settlement in the southern Borkou Region of Chad. It hosts the Koro Toro Airport and a "notorious"[1] maximum security desert prison[2] used by the Chadian government to detain captured fighters of Boko Haram[3] and Chadian rebel groups.[1] According to the Chadian opposition, Koro Toro is factually a penal colony.[2]

It is also known as anthropological and archaeological site, as the fossil hominin Australopithecus bahrelghazali was discovered at Koro Toro in January 1995.[4]
