Pigs beat students at Gaza blockade protest

Posted on 26/11/200804/01/2021 By 3arabawy

From AFP:

Baton-wielding riot police clashed with hundreds of students at Cairo University who were protesting on Wednesday against the blockade of the Gaza Strip.
About 600 police clashed with 300 students at the downtown campus, an AFP photographer said. At least one demonstrator needed treatment for head wounds.
Police entered the campus, the photographer said, despite a court ruling barring them from university grounds.
The students were independents or members of different opposition groups, said a Muslim Brotherhood official.

UPDATE: I spoke with Blogger Ahmad Abdel Fattah who covered the protest. He said the troops did NOT enter campus, contrary to what the AFP report stated. The clashes took place outside in the streets in front of the main gate.

Wael Habib banned from entering Ghazl el-Mahalla

Posted on 26/11/200810/01/2021 By 3arabawy

Textile Workers’ League activist Wael Habib was banned today from entering the Ghazl el-Mahalla factory compound by police and company security. As I’m writing, there is NO official paper given to Wael that details his transfer decree. “The transfer decree was verbal,” said Habib in a phone call. “The management and the security refuse to show me any documents.”

Wael led a delegation of 50 workers, including (Amal Said and Wedad el-Demerdash) to the state-backed local union building in Mahalla, demanding an investigation into the corruption of the management and revoking the transfer decrees. They were promised a meeting next week. Meanwhile, the factory organizers are gearing up for the Saturday protest.
