Egypt Protests: Anti-Moubarak vs Pro-Moubarak Riots
Local vigilantes patrol a makeshift roadblock on a main seaside road as midnight approaches in Alexandria February 2, 2011. Supporters of President Hosni Mubarak, throwing petrol bombs, wielding sticks and charging on horses and camels, fiercely attacked demonstrators in Cairo on Wednesday after the army told protesters to clear the streets. Anti-Mubarak protesters hurled stones back and said the attackers were police in plain clothes, a charge the Interior Ministry denied; the Egyptian government rejected international calls for the leader to end his 30-year-rule now.
