Around 100 people were arrested in Egypt for participating in pro-Palestinian demonstrations last week, although some have since been released. The protests, approved by the state, were held in various locations, but some protesters walked to Tahrir Square, which was not authorized for the demonstration. The unauthorized protesters were quickly dispersed by security personnel. Unapproved public protests are banned in Egypt, and Tahrir Square is heavily monitored due to its symbolic significance.
