Paleogene dinosaurs in Uzbekistan?

Okay--don't know quite what to make of this item in Russian. It claims
that scientists found footprints of small cloven-hoofed animals, large
carnivores of the cat family, and typical three-toed dinosaur
footprints together at a Paleogene site in Uzbekistan... (If it's
Eocene, maybe it's a Gastornis relative...) The news story mentions a
paper published last year and a recent conference.... (This one may
need some research...)
