Suppressing April 6 Demonstration in Egypt





Today was the second anniversary of April 6 Strikes. Tens of activists were arrested downtown Cairo. Woman activists were beaten by policewomen for the first time in the modern history of Egyptian activism. However, the prominent figures of the Egyptian opposition elite were absent!

I will publish my full analysis on today's demonstration in few hours... Meanwhile, watch this great video coverage from Daily News Egypt. And, follow me on Twitter (@daliaziada) for minute by minute updates.
