For the first time since it was set on fire by protesters last Wednesday night, builders have gone in to start the process of gutting and re-building. It will be a long job.

The city of Almaty in Kazakhstan is getting back on its feet. Still under a state of emergency, it doesn’t feel that way anymore.
