By the time the Eid prayer began, the square was nearly at full capacity. According to witnesses, over 30 thousand people gathered to perform the festive prayer. The believers lined up, occupying not only the central part of the square but also the surrounding streets. The atmosphere was calm and focused, without any hustle.
Among those gathered was President Sadyr Japarov, who also joined the prayer along with other believers.
As the prayer began, silence reigned over the square. Even in the dense crowd, everyone maintained order — participants stayed in rows and kept their distance.
To ensure public order at the event, police officers and medical personnel were on duty. Although security measures were heightened, no incidents occurred, and everything went smoothly.
After the prayer concluded, a lively atmosphere filled the square: people congratulated each other on the holiday of Orozo Ait, exchanged good wishes, and gradually dispersed to their homes.
The Eid prayer in Bishkek remains one of the most significant and mass religious events in the country, gathering thousands of believers.
