I’ve spoken with a Socialist activist inside the factory. There’s a delegation of NDP MPs already in the factory now to make some offer.
No more details yet, but I can hear strong chants in the background from the workers, songs, drum beats.

Egyptians Against Torture: Exposing Mubarak’s pigs in Fayoum
Egyptians Against Torture Bloggers Nora Younis, Abdel Moneim Mahmoud, and Ahmad Abdel Qawi travelled to the Fayoum Oasis to interview the family of a man killed under torture by Mubarak’s police.

This is a green light for the police to move against the strikers.
