Report from Egypt

There are reports that Tahrir Square is now completely packed, with all side streets jammed with people, even before the major marches have arrived.

Egypt is witnessing without a doubt the single biggest popular mobilization since the initial uprising that overthrew Mubarak in January and February 2011 -- even though it is being challenged by massive counter-demonstrations of Islamists in Nasr City in East Cairo and elsewhere. So far, the demonstrations have been mostly peaceful, in contrast to the violence of the past days.
