Kyrgyzstan-Tajikistan: Images of destruction after border clashes
|
[BBC] The death toll from recent clashes at a disputed Kyrgyzstan-Tajikistan border has risen to 46, with hundreds of people injured and dozens of homes destroyed, officials say.
Of those killed, 34 were reported from the Kyrgyz side, the Kyrgyz emergencies ministry said on Sunday, and 12 from the Tajik side.
More than 100 properties - including schools, shops, border checkpoints and a police station - were burned down or vandalised in some of the worst fighting the region has seen in years, the ministry added.
Images captured by the BBC show the extent of the destruction in villages in Kyrgyzstan, with homes blackened by fire, roofs collapsed and some buildings reduced to rubble.
