Egypt has imposed a nighttime curfew in an attempt to stop protests by tens of thousands of Egyptians demanding the end of Hosni Mubarak's rule. Friday was the most violent and chaotic day of anti-government protests since the demonstrations began Tuesday.

Security forces clashed with demonstrators calling for an end to President Mubarak's 30-year rule in Cairo, Alexandria, Suez and several other cities. Protesters hurled rocks at armored security vehicles and, in some cases, set them on fire. Police responded with tear gas, water canon and beat some demonstrators with sticks. the rest
