The influenza virus strain A/mute swan/Mangystau/1-S24R-2/2024 (H5N1; clade 2.3.4.4b) was isolated in embryonated chicken eggs from the lung of a dead swan found around Lake Karakol (Kazakhstan) during a highly pathogenic avian influenza outbreak in 2024. The aim of this study was to characterize the genetic profile of the isolated strain.
