Interrupt Kazakh journalist, giving answer up front (5)
I believe the answer is:
abort
'interrupt kazakh' is the definition.
'abort' can be an answer for 'interrupt' (I've seen this in another clue). I am not certain of the 'kazakh' bit.
'journalist giving answer up front' is the wordplay.
'journalist giving' becomes 'bort' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'answer' becomes 'a' (abbreviation eg in Q and A).
'up front' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'bort' put after 'a' is 'ABORT'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for abort that I've seen before include "Bring to premature conclusion" , "Bring to a premature end" , "Miscarry" , "End prematurely" , "[FINISH] prematurely" .)
