Egyptian police clashed Saturday with protesters, mainly from Islamist groups, firing rubber bullets and tear gas as they broke up a sit-in. "Down with Tantawi," hundreds of protesters cried, referring to the country's military ruler Field Marshal Hussein Tantawi, as they lobbed rocks towards policemen who responded with heavy volleys of rubber bullets.
By nightfall, police seemed have retreated from the square and several thousand protesters reassembled peacefully in the central garden of Tahrir Square, AFP reported.
