Egypt Tightens Security On Anniversary Of 2011 Uprising That Toppled Hosni Mubarak









CAIRO (Reuters) - Egypt tightened security on Sunday on the anniversary of the popular uprising that toppled autocrat Hosni Mubarak in 2011.


State news agency MENA said 22 armored army vehicles were stationed around Cairo's Tahrir Square, the symbolic heart of the revolt that ended 30 years of iron-fisted rule under Mubarak and raised hopes of greater freedoms.


Roads leading to the square were sealed off.
