Egypt Opposition Calls for Renewed Protests | VOA

Egypt Opposition Calls for Renewed Protests | VOA: "An Egyptian opposition group has called for a second day of protests in Cairo, just hours after police fired tear gas and beat anti-government protesters to clear a central square in the city.

The 6th of April Youth Movement used its Facebook page to urge protesters to continue Wednesday, after the largest demonstrations in years against President Hosni Mubarak's decades-old rule.

Egypt's Interior Ministry said Wednesday no new demonstrations would be allowed, and warned that protesters would be prosecuted."
