Bishkek, March 2, 2026 /Kabar/. Due to the ongoing difficult situation in the Middle East, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Kyrgyz Republic recommends that citizens of the Kyrgyz Republic in the UAE remain calm and observe heightened precautions.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs recommends monitoring official announcements from local UAE authorities (the Ministry of Interior and other competent authorities) and relying solely on reliable information. It also asks against disseminating unverified information.

At the same time, the Ministry reports that the competent UAE authorities have decided to temporarily extend the stay of citizens in hotels without charging an additional fee, as well as to prevent evictions due to flight cancellations and postponements. Therefore, citizens of the Kyrgyz Republic are advised to remain in their hotels and await official government recommendations, maintaining constant contact with Kyrgyz diplomatic missions abroad, tour operators, airlines, and hotel management.

In the event of an air raid siren or other emergency, strictly follow the instructions of law enforcement officials and hotel staff.

Given the "closed skies" regime in the UAE, we ask that travel by land or through third countries be considered only in cases of extreme necessity and with mandatory monitoring of official information from the relevant authorities.
