Ysyk-Ata District (Kyrgyz: Ысык-Ата району, Russian: Ысык–Атинский район) is one of the eight districts of the Chüy Region in northern Kyrgyzstan with an area of 2,415 square kilometres (932 sq mi).[2] The district's resident population was 154,340 in 2021.[1] Since 1998, when the former Kant District was merged into Ysyk-Ata District, the administrative center of the district is the city of Kant.[3] The district is located on the southern side of the river Chüy, about halfway between the national capital Bishkek and the former regional capital Tokmok.

Air force base and school

[edit]
Main article: Kant (air base)

In 1941, a Soviet Air Force base and pilot training school were set up in the district. During World War II, 1507 military pilots were trained there. Since 1956, the school trained foreign pilots; among its graduates were both the ex-Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak and the late Syrian president Hafez Assad.

In 1992, the air base was transferred to Kyrgyzstan authorities; since 2003 it hosts Russian Air Force units.[4]

Water erosion

[edit]

The district authorities, as well as the residents of the riverside village of Milyanfan (Russian: Милянфан), are concerned with the river Chüy gradually washing away the district's land, as it shifts its course to the south and erodes its left (southern) bank.[5]
