The protest organizers and opposition supporters — inspired by the popular revolt in Tunisia — have dubbed Tuesday’s rallies, which are planned mainly in Cairo and Alexandria, as “the day of revolution against torture, poverty, corruption and unemployment.” The rally call spread on Facebook and Twitter, with 90,000 saying they will attend.
Amnesty International expressed worries over protesters’ safety, urging authorities to “refrain from excessive and disproportionate force.” Interior Minister Habib el-Adly says “decisive measures” will be imposed in the face of chaos.
