Kyrgyzstan

Protestors have taken control of the main government buildings in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan’s capital, including the presidential palace. President Akayev has fled, some say by helicopter to Kazakstan.


Hat tip: Registan

Update (by Coyote): Actually, it seems President Akayev has resigned, at least according to the ITAR-Tass news agency.

Also, Publius Pundit has a neat survey of the last month’s revolutions in flowers.

Update (Coyote again): According to the Argus, Akayev has not yet resigned, although much of his cabinet has.
