Last update: 37 minutes agoMigration Crackdown in Russia: Tighter rules are biting Central Asian workers. Russia recorded about 1.9 million work-related entries from Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan in the first half of 2026—down roughly 15% year-on-year. Uzbekistan fell 13.2% to 1.1 million; Tajikistan dropped 18% to 494,500; Kyrgyzstan fell nearly 17% to 289,000. Drone-Strike Fallout: Uzbekistan repatriated the bodies of eight citizens killed in a drone attack in Russia’s Tatarstan, while Tajik officials said one Tajik national was also killed and two were injured. Tajik Fuel Pressure: With Russian supplies disrupted by drone attacks on refineries, Tajikistan tripled fuel imports in July to 34,000 tons from Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan, as the government searches for more sources beyond Russia. Aviation Update: Somon Air says it will launch weekly direct flights between Dushanbe and Minsk starting Aug. 29, after receiving its first Boeing 737 MAX in Dushanbe on Aug. 3. Border Security: Kyrgyzstan says it has installed 160.558 km of barbed-wire fencing along the Kyrgyz-Tajik border to curb smuggling and strengthen security.
