CAIRO (AP) — The Egyptian military is calling for an end to more than a week of demonstrations demanding President Hosni Mubarak step down immediately after nearly 30 years in power.

A military spokesman says: “Your message has arrived, your demands became known … you are capable of bringing normal life to Egypt.”

Internet service is also returning to Egypt after days of an unprecedented cutoff by the government.
