    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.
