Air force base and school
In 1941, a Soviet Air Force base and pilot training school were set up in the district. During World War II, 1507 military pilots were trained there. Since 1956, the school trained foreign pilots; among its graduates were both the ex-Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak and the late Syrian president Hafez al-Assad.
In 1992, the air base was transferred to Kyrgyzstan authorities; since 2003 it hosts Russian Air Force units.[4]
