As part of the work carried out, 11 citizens who did not have temporary housing were accommodated in hostels. Another 13 compatriots who faced financial difficulties have purchased air tickets to return to their homeland, the Dunyo news agency reports.

Special attention is paid to the protection of migrants' rights. In particular, passports illegally held by unscrupulous employers were returned from 34 Uzbek citizens.

In addition, hospitalization was provided to one citizen who needed urgent medical care, while all treatment costs were fully covered by the state.

The staff of the Consulate General held online meetings with 221 Uzbek citizens held in temporary facilities in the territory of the consular district. As a result of the appeals, the necessary documents were issued for their return to their homeland.

In order to provide additional support to citizens who find themselves homeless, the Consulate General has concluded a cooperation agreement with one of the hostels in the district.

An on-site consular reception has also been organized in Shymkent for Uzbek citizens living in the Southern regions of Kazakhstan. During the reception, more than 60 citizens received consular services. The main appeals concerned the registration of biometric passports, the demand for documents, citizenship issues, as well as obtaining certificates of return to Uzbekistan.

In order to study the working and living conditions of compatriots, representatives of the Consulate General also visited 10 construction sites in Almaty and Shymkent. During the meetings with more than 170 migrants, information was provided on the opportunities created in Uzbekistan for citizens working abroad, benefits provided for their family members, as well as new initiatives of the Migration Agency.

Special attention is paid to preventive work - citizens are informed of the need for strict compliance with the migration legislation of Kazakhstan, as well as the inadmissibility of involvement in the activities of destructive religious and terrorist organizations.
