Hosni Mubarak supporters attack protesters in Cairo's Tahrir Square

Reporting from Cairo — Thousands of supporters of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak attacked anti-government forces in Cairo's main square Wednesday, some charging in on camels and horses in a dramatic escalation of violence that prompted an official order to clear the area.
After days of raucous but peaceful demonstrations that had resembled a giant block party, pro-Mubarak forces pushed their way into the square from side streets, wielding clubs and horse whips against cordons of protesters.

The crowd of anti-government demonstrators, sparse compared to their numbers in previous days, hurled stones and chunks of concrete. The conflict continued into the evening, with government supporters pelting Tahrir Square with Molotov cocktails from nearby rooftops.


Sirens wailed as ambulances carried away injured government supporters who were accessible from the outside. Inside the square, leaders of the protest movement could be heard using megaphones exhorting their supporters to hold out.
Health Minister Ahmed Sameh Farid said three people were killed and about 600 were hurt in the confrontation. State television broadcast an order late in the day for all protesters to leave the square because of "provocative elements throwing firebombs." It did not specify who gave the order, or a deadline for compliance.
Heavy gunfire broke out after 10 p.m. while the opposing factions traded Molotov cocktails from one rooftop to another, setting small fires that continued to burn but did not spread.
Mohamed ElBaradei, the former head of the International Atomic Energy Agency who has become the symbolic head of the opposition to Mubarak, said in an interview with the Al Jazeera satellite television channel that he feared the confrontation could lead to a bloodbath.
The pro-Mubarak forces apparently were emboldened by the president's vow the day before to serve out his term through the autumn.
"In spirit and blood we want you, Mubarak," the president's supporters chanted. "You are our president. You are our president."
Army forces deployed at the historic square, which had previously shown restraint, turned water cannon on the crowd to quell the confrontation.
