No information on Armenian victims in the interethnic violence in
Kyrgyzstan is available yet, a source at the RA Consulate in Bishkek
told NEWS.am. There is a small Armenian community in Osh, the southern
capital of Kyrgyzstan.
Over 117 people were killed, 1,500 wounded in the ethnic violence
between Kyrgyz and Uzbek residents. Gangs armed with automatic
rifles, iron bars and machetes had set fire to houses and shot
fleeing residents.
On June 14, the Secretaries of the CSTO member-states' Natioal Security
Councils will hold a special sitting in Moscow to discuss the situation
in Kyrgyzstan.
In this regard, Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu said Turkey
will send two planes to Kyrgyzstan to evacuate its citizens from the
country due to an unstable situation there.
Representatives of the UN, EU and OSCE left for the region.
