Protesters split over whether to go
In downtown Cairo's Tahrir Square, cars began moving across the roundabout for the first time since the massive demonstration broke out, while the protesters are split over whether to leave the square.
Some Egyptians were celebrating victory, while many already left the square. However, a large number refused to move until other demands are met.
On Sunday morning, soldiers cordoned off protestors who were remaining in Tahrir Square, the fulcrum of 19 days of nationwide demonstration, in order to facilitate the flow of traffic.
People who declined to leave the square have listed different reasons, including demands for salary raise, release of detained family members and dissolving the parliament.
"We demand the armed forces release all our sons that have been arrested in Tahrir," said a protestor.
However, others called on them to leave and give some time for the army to take steps.
"People should move out of the Tahrir and start going to work, enough with the complaints, we need to take our country forward. We took what we want enough," said Reda El Sedi, a young protestor.
Reports circulated that some minor clashes between the army forces and protestors erupted. However, many witnesses said they were among the people themselves, and added that the army has been trying to clean the area.
"They treated us with dignity," said Sedi.
A group of lower rank policemen gathered outside the Ministry of Interior on Sunday, demanding pay rises, allowances, equal treatment and public execution of former interior minister Habib al-Adly.
Warning shots were fired in the air, but no one was hurt.
The Egyptian police forces have been widely criticized for cracking down on dissidents, torture, corruption and bribery.
These police insisted that they were given orders to deal harshly with the demonstrators on Jan. 28. Many said that their work was underestimated as some of them also died during the protests for the sake of Egypt.
The Egyptian Museum, home to priceless collections, announced on Sunday that several priceless artefacts were stolen during a break-in on Jan. 28.
The missing pieces include "a gilded wood statue of the 18th Dynasty Pharaoh Tutankhamun being carried by a goddess," and parts of another gilded wood statue of the king, Minister of State for Antiquities Zahi Hawass said in a statement.
The investigation into the missing artifacts has already been launched, Hawass said.
