  • As Arutz Sheva closes for Sabbath in Israel: The Egyptian army released a statement on state television on Friday telling protestors to go home and promising to end the 30 year old state of emergency soon, as well as hold free elections, while Al Arabiya TV reports that the Egyptian president and his family have left Cairo for the Red Sea area.  Reuters was unable to corroborate the report that Mubarak had arrived at the resort. Friday's military meeting was chaired by Defense Minister Hussein Tantawi, a sign that the military is acting independently of the president. On Thursday, before Mubarak told Egypt he plans to stay in power, the military appeared to be preparing for a coup.
