Egyptians gear up for 'day of anger'

None

Egyptian activists were gearing for nationwide rallies on Friday to protest against the ruling military council's handling of the post-revolt phase, in a call that has exposed political rifts.

 

In Cairo, protesters streamed mid-morning into Tahrir Square - the symbolic heart of protests that toppled Hosni Mubarak in February - ahead of the rallies scheduled to start after the Muslim Friday prayers. Youth groups that helped launch the uprising have dubbed Friday "the second day of anger" urging protesters to rally for "an end to political corruption." (AFP)
