"DAWN OF A REVOLUTION"

Following the Tunisian uprising and the events of January 25th, the egyptians called for a mass demonstration on Friday 28th January after the prayer; the 'friday of anger'. On that morning i arrived in Cairo. The city was silent, the prayer was on. As soon as the prayer ended, the streets of Cairo were invaded by thousands and thousands of protestors marching towards Tahrir square and demanding the removal of Hosni Mobarak's Regime. It was the point of no return, the egyptian revolution had begun.
