Tajikistan Clashes: 'Many Dead' In Gorno-Badakhshan -- BBC
At least 42 people including 12 soldiers and 30 rebels have been killed in fighting in the remote Tajik region of Gorno-Badakhshan, state television has reported.
Some unconfirmed reports speak of a far higher level of casualties, with dozens of people being killed in the violence.
It follows the fatal stabbing of a top security forces official on Saturday.
That led to military action against local opposition strongman Tolib Ayombekov, reports say.
Residents of the provincial capital Khorog told the BBC their town now resembled a warzone.
