{{main|2011 Mangystau riots}}

In May 2011, workers from the Ozenmunaigas oil field went on strike over pay. The strike was declared illegal by local courts and the state oil company sacked nearly 1000 employees.[7] Some of the sacked workers then occupied the town square in protest. On 16 December 2011 police were accused of firing on them.[8] Fifteen people (workers and police officers) were killed according to government officials, though opposition sources put the death toll in the dozens.[9] In disturbances that day local government offices, a hotel and an office of the state oil company were set on fire, according to General Prosecutor Askhat Daulbayev.[8] Eighty-six people were injured in the clashes – according to the authorities – and due to shortage of hospital beds in Zhanaozen, many were taken to be treated in the regional capital Aktau, about 150 km away.[9]

A state of emergency was declared on December 17, roads into Zhanaozen were blocked, and the local airport was closed for incoming flights. Mobile phone coverage was blocked, as were internet connections.[9]
