Reserve staff remove illegal fishing nets from Lake son-kul

Reserve staff and environmental inspectors from the Naryn region removed 500 meters of illegally installed synthetic nets from Lake Son-Kul in Kyrgyzstan.

The authorities conducted the raid as part of an ongoing moratorium on commercial fishing within the waters of Lake Son-Kul and Lake Issyk-Kul. The operation aimed to clear the lake of synthetic materials that interfere with the local ecosystem. Officials plan to continue these types of inspections in the future to maintain the integrity of the protected waters.

The removal of these nets serves as a measure to uphold the fishing restrictions currently in place for the region.
