CAIRO (AP) — Egyptian activists are staging demonstrations for a third day in the capital Cairo and at least one other city, keeping up the momentum of the largest anti-government protests in years.
Associated Press reporters saw scores of protesters outside the downtown Cairo offices of Egypt’s lawyers’ union, which has been one of the flashpoints of this week’s unrest calling for the ouster of longtime President Hosni Mubarak. About 100 people were also protesting outside police headquarters in the city of Suez east of Cairo, another hot spot.
