World Bakiyev supporters seized control of government buildings in the cities of Osh, Jalalabad and Batken, kidnapped the governor of Jalalabad region and tried to take control of the area's main airport in Osh, witnesses and officials said. "The interim government views today's events in Osh...as an attempt by former President Bakiyev's associates to regain power," government spokesman Farid Niyazov was quoted as saying by Russia's Interfax news agency. There were no reports of deaths but the unrest was the biggest challenge to the interim government, formed last month after a popular revolt topped Bakiyev from power and forced him to flee to the former Soviet republic of Belarus. Any worsening of tensions in the south, at the heart of Central Asia's most flammable and ethnically divided corner, would be of concern to world powers keen to maintain stability in Central Asia, a vast Muslim region north of Afghanistan. Belarus, whose maverick leader Alexander Lukashenko refused to extradite Bakiyev to face charges in Kyrgyzstan, announced on Thursday that all its diplomats had left the Kyrgyz capital Bishkek "for security reasons." Russia and the United States, who both have military bases in Kyrgyzstan, backed the interim government which came to power after the overthrow of Bakiyev. It was not immediately clear how they would respond to today's events. "We are receiving information and are trying to understand what is happening," said Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin's spokesman Dmitry Peskov. AFGHAN OPS The U.S. base at Bishkek's Manas airport is key to U.S. efforts to supply forces fighting in nearby Afghanistan. Rosa Otunbayeva, a former Soviet diplomat who leads the Kyrgyz interim government, vowed to foil any coup attempt and promised to restore law and order, Interfax reported. "We have what it takes to dispel the fear existing among the public," it quoted her as saying. The government dispatched Defense Minister Ismail Isakov to Osh to try to quell the revolt but it was not immediately clear what resources he had at his disposal. Omurbek Tekebayev, a deputy prime minister in the Central Asian state's interim government, told Reuters: "He (Isakov) has full authority and has the right to make any decisions he deems necessary at the moment." But Kyrgyzstan's armed forces are small, poorly equipped and demoralized after the bloody revolt against Bakiyev, during which they stayed mainly in barracks and avoided taking sides. The south of Kyrgyzstan is Bakiyev's power base and Jalalabad is the former president's native region. The region is prone to ethnic tension between almost equally populous Kyrgyz and Uzbek communities. Before the Soviet Union's collapse, hundreds of people were killed in clashes between Uzbeks and Kyrgyz near Osh in 1990. In Jalalabad, Interfax reported Bakiyev supporters had broken into the regional administration building and placed a portrait of the former president on the front. Several hundred people were in and around the building and police were not intervening. A Reuters witness in Kyrgyzstan's second-biggest city Osh said supporters of Bakiyev scuffled with guards and entered the government building after holding a demonstration that drew about 1,000 people. There were conflicting reports about who controlled Osh airport. Tekebayev said Bakiyev supporters had seized it but an employee at Osh airport said the airport had only been closed temporarily for Isakov's arrival and was now working normally. On Wednesday, the Kyrgyz government faced its first big protest in the capital, Bishkek, as hundreds of opponents, many of them members of Bakiyev's Ak Zhol party and the allied Communists, demonstrated against the dissolution of parliament. Tekebayev said Thursday's unrest in Osh, where police intervened to end a brief brawl between the supporters and the opponents of the new government, formed part of the same plan. "This (plan) has failed in Bishkek and today they tried to do it in Osh," he said. Protesters in Osh brought a pro-Bakiyev regional governor, sacked by the interim government, into his former office which they have occupied.
