There have been minor skirmishes along Kyrgyzstan's southern border with Uzbekistan's Sokh exclave, but officials say the situation was quickly brought under control.

Officials in Kyrgyzstan's southern region of Batken said on May 14 that residents of the Kyrgyz village of Sai and the Uzbek village of Chashma "brawled following a misunderstanding" the previous day which led to an escalation of tensions as many people on both sides gathered at the border.

According to the regional administration's press service, law enforcement officials of the two countries are at the site and working with local residents to investigate the clashes. No other details were given.
