Anyway, since people can't answer my questions, I'm assuming majority of the conflict is centralized to Almaty.

Surroundings of Almaty and nearby cities. There are a bunch of these armed groups across the south of the country.
I'd imagine all but the most hardcore would have either gone back home to hide, skipped over the border to Kyrgyzstan by now or fled to the west of the country in the hope that security operations won't extend to there.

I'm loving the spin doctors at work. "This might strengthen Russia's hands"....."Russia's not messing around this time"......

1. Immediate release of all political prisoners
2. Full resignation of president and government
3. Political reforms : Creation of a Provisional Government of reputable and public citizens.
4. Withdrawal from all alliances with Russia
We were told this "democracy movement" is about "rise in fuel prices". The govt already conceded that demand and revoked those prices. And yet the protests continue. Point 4 looks like a grand geo-political objective. big hints of colour revolution.

Simple as that. I've wasted enough time trying to explain the source and root causes of it - the way of thinking that leads to such decision making. The U.S and its allies will continue to do what is competent of them to do... encircle Russia, and keep it down as much as humanely possible without triggering world war. Great power competition 101. That Russia struggles in its responses to such is of course of interest to any observer.
The spin doctors do what they're supposed to do and sheep will believe them cause they're predisposed to believe it to avoid cognitive dissonance... it's 100% normal for some humans to do this. Nothing controversial, except to those catching feelings cause maybe they believe the description fits them... and as we know, no one likes to feel like their brain matter is made of sheep sauce.

Here is what you won't see till the great leader retires and someone with balls take charge. You won't see a Russian puppet regime as a result of a soft coup or color revolution in any of the following: NATO member states, allied protectorates of the U.S (Korea, Japan, Mexico, Saudi Arabia etc)...
It's what it's.
Without reciprocal pressure, the U.S will continue to be at the offensive, for as long as it can keep the effort - which is dependent on the push-back, plus other variables. Looking at the speed in which they pull these, the clear assessment is that the push back is rather meak thus "keep doing it".

Of course we should help. We absolutely should help. But there are several conditions to make -- recognize Crimea (as Russian territory), return the Cyrillic alphabet, (and institute) Russian as a second state language, like in Kyrgyzst
