The world’s attention has been focused on the Russia-Ukraine crisis, while other conflicts, including the Kyrgyzstan-Tajikistan dispute in Central Asia did not elicit much international media attention. The escalation of conflict between the two countries, as witnessed on September 14-15 and then again on November 3-4, 2022, has been a troubling development for the region. The conflict has the potential to cause a negative impact on the stability of Central Asia and its neighboring regions. Over 100 people were killed and scores injured in recent border conflicts between the two countries. The fighting took place near Kyrgyzstan’s southern Batken province, bordering Vorukh region of Tajikistan. Tajikistan has accused Kyrgyz forces of targeting civilian infrastructure and destroying a mosque, while the latter has alleged unilateral Tajik aggression.
