| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin [ColonelCassad] Preliminary official data on the victims of the events in Kazakhstan. The dead (who were admitted to morgues) - 225 people (of which one is a citizen of the Russian Federation, as well as 19 policemen and security officials), of which 176 died in hospitals. Wounded and injured - 4,578 people (265 of them in hospitals, 67 of them in intensive care). Of the more than 8,000 detainees following the riots and the attempted coup, 446 people were arrested. 540 criminal cases were initiated. The figure of 20,000 militants (only in Alma-Ata) did not find any statistical confirmation. These are still preliminary figures, but it is expected that they will not change very much. In general, following the events, the following questions remain: 1. Where is Nazarbayev? 2. What did Nazarbayev do from 1 to 10 January. 3. How much was actually the "combat asset" to which Alma-Ata surrendered? 4. Who exactly sent this "asset"? 5. What external forces were in contact with those who controlled the process in Kazakhstan? 6. Who exactly gave the order to hand over the guns (especially the guns of the KNB)? 7. What were the tasks of a group of militants who seized the airport in Alma-Ata? 8. Where did the bulk of the militants deploy from? From other things in Kazakhstan. 1. Lukashenko said that they developed the CSTO operation in Kazakhstan together with Putin in an hour. 2. The withdrawal of the CSTO troops from Kazakhstan will be completed by January 20. 3. The Deputy Minister of Energy of Kazakhstan and a number of people were arrested for 2 months for increasing gas tariffs, which led to protests. |
