Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 DMZ compounds are another new mechanic added to the extraction shooter, and just like the lieutenant towers, you need to "clear a compound" to complete the "No One Left" order, which is in the first set of the "Human Intel" chapter. Hajin is a big map, though, so compounds aren't easy to find in DMZ.

Here's everything you need to know about compounds in DMZ in Modern Warfare 4 including all of their locations and how to clear them.

There are six compounds in DMZ altogether, indicated by the star icons on the map above, and by tent icons on your in-game map. Here are all the locations:

  • South of the 14th Political Prison
  • West of Cheongun Village
  • East of Imjin Farmland
  • West of Hajin River Heights
  • North of Hajin River Heights
  • South of Haneul Nuclear Reactor

These are small, gated areas with around ten enemies inside, give or take. All you need to do to "clear a compound" is kill all the foes inside. Then you'll have the run of the place, which includes plenty of loot-able containers, often including a safe if you look hard enough. If you're struggling to see a way in, scout the perimeter, because every compound I've cleared has had a gap in the wall, rather than going in guns blazing through the front entrance.
