Protests erupt in Egypt
 Hundreds of Egyptians ralled in Cairo yesterday demanding the departure of President Hosni Mubarak. Protesters heeded the call of the Kefaya movement in Cairo and the northern cities of Alexandria and Mansura, in the largest popular action against the 76-year-old ruler to date. Security forces were deployed in thousands to thwart what some commentators have suggested could one day lead to Egypt's own velvet revolution.Posted by: Fred 2005-04-01 |
