At least 745 dead. 500+ in a city where everyone knows what happened. 200 more...no one knows what happened in that city.
Phone lines blocked--even cell phones.
Internet in the native language--blocked.
A meeting for a moment of silence arranged...and no one dares get out of their cars.
Even people working with the government are scared.
Fiction? My latest story? I wish.
Reality.
Uzbekistan. I honor your dead, pray for your peace, wish scruples for your government.
Uzbekistan.
