Text from Youtube page -- Three people have been killed as thousands took to the streets of Egypt in its biggest anti-government protests in years. The largest rallies gathered in Cairo, where demonstrators chanted slogans against President Hosni Mubarak's authoritarian rule. The unrest is inspired by the recent uprising in Tunisia and fueled by growing discontent at Egypt's grinding poverty and unemployment.

Thousands of anti-government protesters, some hurling rocks and climbing on top of an armoured police truck, clashed with riot police on Tuesday in the centre of Cairo in a Tunisia-inspired demonstration to demand the end of Hosni Mubarak's nearly 30 years in power. Police responded with blasts from a water cannon and set upon crowds with batons and acrid clouds of tear gas to clear demonstrators who chanted "Down with Mubarak", and as they demanded an end to the country's grinding poverty.
