Middle East: the events of Friday 1 April

Libya: Muammar Gaddafi has suffered a setback with the departure of his Foreign Minister, Musa Kusa, but on the ground, his forces managed to push back in the eastern rebel troops disorganized and bombard the town of Misrata. Loyalists have consolidated their positions south of Ajdabiya (160 km south of Benghazi) by U.S.

Admiral Mullen has said he expected a resumption of the offensive pro-Gaddafi towards Benghazi. The rebels say they are now ready for a cease-fire under certain conditions. Syria calls were launched to protest via the internet, while authorities announced Thursday, March 31 the first steps to calm an unprecedented challenge (commission on emergency law and the dead in Dera and Latakia).

The importance of these events will test the ability of protesters to mobilize so that this type of rally is immediately suppressed. Egypt: A demonstration is planned Tahrir Square, center of the revolt that brought down President Hosni Mubarak in February at the invitation of movements involved in the uprising, to "save the revolution." Yemen: The country is preparing for another day of tension after the call of President Ali Abdullah Saleh to a massive mobilization of his supporters.

Opponents of the president were also mobilized in Sanaa, where there are fears of clashes between the two groups. & amp; amp; amp; amp; amp; lt; a href = "http://www. CoveritLive. com / mobile. php / option = com_mobile / task = viewaltcast / altcast_code 1c9adc84b3 = "mce_href =" http://www.
