Note: Yesterday (February 2nd) was the anniversary of the 'Battle of the Camels' in which pro-Mubarak supporters attacked demonstrators in Tahrir Square in 2011. It marked a significant turning point in the demonstrations that helped overthrow Hosni Mubarak. The event is named after the camels some pro-Mubarak people rode on to attack protesters.
