Kyrgyzstan plans to significantly increase its surveillance capabilities, doubling the number of surveillance cameras nationwide from 10,000 to 20,000. Interior Minister Ulan Niyazbekov announced the plan during a staff meeting, stating the goal is to reach this number by the end of 2026. The increase is intended to bolster public safety and security across Kyrgyzstan. Details regarding the deployment locations of the additional cameras were not immediately available. This expansion represents a substantial investment in surveillance technology within the country. The move reflects a broader trend towards increased monitoring in the region and globally. Further information is expected to be released regarding the specifics of the project’s implementation.
