The 2020 Kyrgyz Revolution (Kyrgyz: Кыргызстандагы төңкөрүш, romanized: Kyrgyzstandagy töngkörush), also known as the Third Kyrgyz Revolution (Үчүнчү революция, Üçünçü revolyutsiya) or October Events, began on 5 October 2020, in response to the previous day's parliamentary election that was perceived by protestors as unfair, with allegations of electoral fraud.[7][8] The results of the election were annulled on 6 October 2020.[9] On 12 October 2020, President Jeenbekov announced a state of emergency in the capital city of Bishkek,[10] which was approved by Parliament the following day.[11] Jeenbekov resigned on 15 October 2020.[12]
