France 24: Kazakhstan says coup bid foiled ahead of presidential election
Kazakhstan said Thursday it had prevented a coup attempt by supporters of an exiled opposition figure as it arrested seven people ahead of a presidential election this weekend.
On Sunday, Kazakhstan will hold a snap presidential vote expected to cement incumbent Kassym-Jomart Tokayev's grip on power, months after deadly unrest shook the Central Asian country and left more than 230 people dead.

Poo tin and the hardliners should withdraw more soldiers from the stans or the far east. Nothing bad will happen. Those cannon fodder, soldiers, are needed in Ukraine for raping women, setting up exfiltration camps and other manly deeds.
Mind your vertices and edges, your weighted edges.
hybrid war. West tried this last year. Back at it again
Possible. More likely that some people do not like corrupt dicktators for life.
Before you look for zebras should you look for horses first?
it's a jungle out there
zerbras stir up trouble. But yes horses are pissed.Zebras provide money, propaganda and support to stir up already angry horses.
By the way. Zebras do not care about the horses. Zebras have thier own agenda
Zebras callously use horses to achieve zebra goals.
Horses need to be very careful. Find themselves in winter alone, barn burned down, no fodder and freezing.
And Trying tostay warm by shouting Slava Ukraine
No.
The mantra of Boxer fits better.
I will work harder.
And after Zebra agenda is achieved....off to the Knackers
The whole Zebras versus horses thing come form or is used in medicine, It is look for the common diseases, before looking for exotic diseases. Put another way don't start testing for exotic diseases before you ruled out the common ones.
"Zebra is the American medical slang for arriving at a surprising, often exotic, medical diagnosis when a more commonplace explanation is more likely.[1] It is shorthand for the aphorism coined in the late 1940s by Theodore Woodward, professor at the University of Maryland School of Medicine, who instructed his medical interns: "When you hear hoofbeats behind you, don't expect to see a zebra.""

I do not think the CIA is that good or that bold to do much of anything in Kazakhstan.
First, you have to rule out a dictator for life getting overthrown by the military, becuase they can or because he is weak.
