Bishkek’s Main Directorate of Internal Affairs (GUVD) announced heightened security measures for school graduation ceremonies on June 26th. Over 2,000 police officers will be deployed to maintain order during the certificate presentation events across the capital city. The GUVD specifically requested parents refrain from providing their children with vehicles, likely to manage traffic congestion and ensure pedestrian safety. This large-scale deployment underscores the authorities’ commitment to a safe and orderly conclusion to the academic year. The measure aims to prevent potential disruptions and ensure the well-being of graduates and attendees. No specific threats were cited as the reason for the increased security presence. The GUVD statement focuses primarily on logistical considerations and public safety during the celebrations.
