Argo District

Argo District (Persian: شهرستان ارکو‎‎ / Pashto: دارگو ولسوالی‎) is one of the 28 districts in Badakhshan Province, Afghanistan. It was created in 2005 from part of Fayzabad District and is home to approximately 45,000 residents.

On 2 May 2014, there were two mudslides in the district occurring on the side of a mountain, affecting the villages of either Aab Barik or Hargu.
