Tear gas returns to Cairo’s Tahrir Square
November 23, 2011Cairo (CNN) — Dawn broke over central Cairo Tuesday, revealing thousands of demonstrators sleeping on the lawns, sidewalks and streets of Tahrir Square.
Throughout the previous night, running street battles raged in the streets and back alleys just a few hundred yards away. The steady stream of ambulances leaving Tahrir were a tragic sign of just how violent Egypt’s latest round of political unrest has been.
Most of the demonstrators were young Egyptian men; many were teenagers.
