Million-man march to Tahrir – January 25, 2012

Jan 28

Posted by

On January 25, 2012 hundreds of thousands of Egyptians marched to Tahrir square from different spots. Some went to celebrate the first anniversary of the Egyptian revolution, but most of people went to continue the revolution which is now against SCAF who has been ruling Egypt since February 11, 2011 after Mubarak stepped down.

I believe it was the biggest protest ever in Egypt’s history. Tens of marches kept flowing to Tahrir, to the extent that many couldn’t enter the square.
