Water cannon ... protesters are soaked by police
AT least 26 people were killed and more than 1,100 hurt during a "Day of Wrath" across Egypt as protesters and security forces clashed in an anti-government uprising.
In shocking scenes, armoured troop-carriers sped into huge crowds in the capital Cairo - while officers also unleashed teargas, rubber bullets and water cannon.
The clashes brought the total killed according to Egyptian medical officials to 38 and more than 2,000 wounded since the start of Friday as the country's president Hosni Mubarak refused to stand aside as demonstrations against his regime entered a FIFTH day today.
Some reports put the total death toll after a week of chaos at up to 74, including 10 policemen.
Protesters returned to the streets, pouring into Cairo's downtown Tahrir Square where they clashed with riot cops and threw stones while shouting "go away, go away".
