Kazakhstan's health ministry said Sunday that 164 people have been killed in protests that have rocked the country over the past week.

MOSCOW -- Kazakhstan's health ministry said Sunday that 164 people have been killed in protests that have rocked the country over the past week.

The ministry earlier reported more than 2,200 people sought treatment for injuries from the protests, and the Interior Ministry said about 1,300 security officers were injured. The Russian TV station Mir-24 said sporadic gunfire was heard in Almaty on Sunday but it was unclear whether they were warning shots by law enforcement. Tokayev on Friday said he had authorized police and the military to shoot to kill to restore order.

The same party has ruled Kazakhstan since independence from the Soviet Union in 1991. Any figures aspiring to oppose the government have either been repressed, sidelined, or co-opted and financial hardship is widespread despite Kazakhstan's enormous reserves of oil, natural gas, uranium and minerals.

Authorities say security forces killed 26 demonstrators in this week's unrest and that 16 law-enforcement officers died.
