Description | Several thousand protesters in Cairo called on the ruling military on Friday to promptly transfer power to a civilian government and exclude old regime figures from politics. The group chanted "down with the military" and called on the ruling generals to "return to the barracks." The uprising was sparked in part by calls from activists on a Facebook page initially set up to protest that death of another young man, Khaled Said, after a beating by police. |
