Russian units from the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO) peacekeeping force continue arriving in Kazakhstan by military transport aircraft from airfields in the Moscow, Ivanovo and Ulyanovsk regions, as was reported by the press service of the Russian Defence Ministry on Friday.

The Ministry added that Airborne Troops units continue loading military equipment and weapons onto transport aircraft at the Chkalovsky, Ivanovo-North and Ulyanovsk-Vostochny airfields.

The military personnel from the Russian peacekeeping contingent who had previously arrived in Kazakhstan have started to carry out their assigned tasks, and facilitate deployment of the main forces of the peacekeeping contingent.

Unrest has gripped the central Asian republic after unauthorised rallies began in the Mangistau region of Kazakhstan on Sunday after prices of liquefied gas rose from 60 to 120 tenge (€0.12 to €0.24; $0.14 to $0.28) per litre from January 1. The price hike came after the government lifted price controls on liquefied petroleum gas, citing a need to liberalise the market.

Kazakhstan’s President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev on Wednesday accepted the official resignation of the cabinet. However the country's ertswhile government will continue in its former role until a new cabinet of ministers is formed. The authorities have also announced several restored price caps on liquefied petroleum in response to the unrest.

According to the republic’s Ministry of Health, more than 1,000 people have been injured during the ongoing protests and almost 400 hospitalised.

On Thursday, the Collective Security Council sent peacekeeping forces to Kazakhstan to protect state and military facilities and assist law enforcement.
