Protesters show solidarity with April 6 Youth Movement

Demonstrations were staged in several governorates on Monday in solidarity with the Tahrir Square protesters and the April 6 Youth Movement, which was recently accused by the ruling military council of serving as an agent for foreign powers.

In Damietta, residents feared possible clashes between demonstrators and Islamists who came out to demonstrate in the city square for the same purpose.

In Beheira and Daqahliya, demonstrators expressed their support for the movement and condemned Saturday’s attacks on demonstrators in Abbasseya Square.

In Port Said, demonstrators said they would come to Cairo to take part in Friday’s million-strong demonstration in Tahrir Square.

In Giza, demonstrators called for the formation of a united revolutionary council to speak to the military council and the government on behalf of all revolutionary coalitions.
