Kyrgyzstan?
ISHKEK, Kyrgyzstan, March 24 - President Askar Akayev and his family fled the Kyrgyz capital today, a former presidential aide said, after protesters stormed the presidential compound and seized control following clashes with riot policemen during a large opposition rally.
The family left the presidential compound by helicopter for a nearby Russian air base, which they later left, said Mr. Akayev's former chief of staff, Rafjan Jeenbekov. Their final destination was not immediately clear. There were reports that he was heading for either Russia or Kazakhstan, but his whereabouts could not be confirmed.
(the photo is of protestors in akayev's office. i love how not-scary they look. it's looks more like they're on a tour of the presidential residence. except for the guy doing the double fist-pump. he's terrifying.)
