Kyarazaa (Abkhazian : Кьаразаа) is a public organisation in Abkhazia, founded on 23 February 2016 in opposition to the Government of President Khajimba.^[1] It is headed by Dmitri Dbar, who had been dismissed as Sukhumi's police chief in May 2015 after two confrontations between members of the police and the State Security Service.^[2]^[3] Its target group is young people and its stated aim is to consolidate society and strengthen Abkhazian statehood.^[1] On 2 March, it voiced its support for the planned referendum to hold an early presidential election.^[4] The referendum, held in July, ultimately failed due to low turnout after a boycott by both government and opposition supporters.

Abkhazia, officially the Republic of Abkhazia, is a de facto and partially recognized republic on the eastern coast of the Black Sea, south of the Greater Caucasus mountains, in northwestern Georgia. It covers 8,660 square kilometres (3,340 sq mi) and has a population of around 240,000. Its capital is Sukhumi and it is recognised as a state by Russia, Venezuela, Nicaragua, Nauru and Syria. While Georgia lacks control over Abkhazia, the Georgian government and most United Nations member states consider Abkhazia legally part of Georgia, whose constitution designates the area as the Autonomous Republic of Abkhazia.

The Government of President Raul Khajimba is the current Government of the Republic of Abkhazia.

The State Security Service of Abkhazia is the principal security and intelligence agency of Abkhazia.

On 6 December, Kyarazaa, along with Aitaira, signed a cooperation agreement with the Bloc of Opposition Forces.^[5]
