Kyrgyzstan Revolts

Got a letter from my parents telling me that there is a revolt in Bishkek the capital city of Kyrgyzstan. The government has been over thrown and a new government is now in place. This government holds no authority. Looting has continued through out the night last night will continue tonight.


They stormed government building with sticks and homemade shields. I believe the men with the blue head bands on were a supporters of the former president trying to protect his offices.
