It's after 01:30am here so I'm going to keep this short to get the news up and log off.
Approximately 5,000 protestors are now marching in the streets of Alexandria, Egypt protesting poverty and repression and demanding the government stand down.
What began as a small protest snowballed into a major confrontation as word spread through the streets and by social media, turning from a peaceful protest to violence as police tear gassed protesters and thy responded with stones.
More after the flip.
The situation has turned chaotic and protesters are now marching on Parliament as marches is other Egyptian cites come in, and some Police have crossed the line to join the protestors.
