Kyrgyz Intelligence Claims IS Penetrating South Of Country
While there is no proof to support claims that Islamic State militants are allocating budgets to terror attacks in Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan, there is evidence to show that Central Asians are among the militants fighting in Syria and Iraq. (file photo)Radical organizations like the Islamic State (IS) group have started to penetrate into southern Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan's Andijon region in the east of the Ferghana valley, Kyrgyzstan's State Committee for National Security (GKNB) has claimed.
GKNB spokesman Rakhat Suleimanov said that the domestic intelligence agency had arrested a large number of individuals earlier this year who were suspected of involvement in terrorist activities. 
All of those arrested "came from Syria in various ways," Suleimanov said at a February 26 roundtable organized by Russian government daily, Rossiiskaya gazeta.
