Undaunted in Cairo's Tahrir Square
Matthew Cassel writing from Cairo, Egypt, Live from Palestine, 2 February 2011

Protesters are holding their ground in Cairo's Tahrir Square. (Matthew Cassel)

Yesterday I stood among more than a million people in Cairo. They came to Tahrir Square in the morning, some even came days ago and haven't left since, and all day long they energetically called for the ouster of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak. "Leave!" they cried. An effigy of Mubarak hung from a lamp post and someone carried a sign shaped like a donkey with the president's face glued to the animal's head.
