BISHKEK, Feb 25 (Reuters) - Kyrgyzstan, home to a Russian military airbase, expressed "deep concern" on Monday over recent killings of Kyrgyz citizens working in Russia and urged Moscow to do more to protect its people.

Russia has seen a surge in racial attacks in the past few years, especially on immigrants from Central Asia and the Caucasus. Eight Kyrgyz nationals have been killed this year, according to Kyrgyz police. http://www.reuters.com/article/latestCrisis/idUSL25256391
