After Deadly Border Clashes, Kyrgyz, Tajiks Return Home And Mourn

Funerals were held on both sides of the Tajik-Kyrgyz border after armed clashes on April 28-29 claimed more than 50 lives. The fighting erupted amid tensions over water facilities in disputed territory. With a cease-fire in place since May 1, evacuees have begun returning home, but many have found their houses damaged or destroyed by fighting and looting.
