Military vehicles of Kyrgyz troops, part of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) peacekeeping forces, cross the Ak-Zhol - Kordai checkpoint on the Kyrgyz-Kazakh border upon return from Kazakhstan in Chuy Region, Kyrgyzstan. A peacekeeping operation was started by CSTO in Kazakhstan in response to the request of President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev made amid the civil unrest that engulfed the Central Asian nation. The CSTO on January 13 announced the end of the mission and started the evacuation of the peacekeepers.
