Protesters took to the streets of Kyrgyzstan’s capital, Bishkek, following a May 13th incident involving a clash between locals and international students, primarily from the Indian subcontinent. The demonstration led to traffic obstructions, vandalism, and arrests by security forces. As Kyrgyzstan attracts a significant number of medical students from India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh, the situation has been closely monitored by the respective embassies. Indian Prime Minister Modi and Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif have expressed concern and have taken steps to provide assistance to their nationals.
