Unrest in Cairo, Egypt
« on: January 31, 2011, 02:04:16 PM »
Since the begining of the unrest in Cairo, the news is that internet blockage may have been imposed (the internet traffic has gone down by more than 80% since last week in Cairo).

I am wishing well to our member Manal who lives in Cairo.

Manal, If you read this, please let us know of your family well being.

The situation in Cairo seems terrible.  I am so afraid for our friends.  If anyone hears from Manal please please post here and let us know.

Thank you,

Telephone lines are blocked from time to time. Atleast the mobile network. Also satellite tv like Al Jazeera are disturbed (through the whole Arab world Al Jazeera has said). The telephone lines are blocked due the services from Google and Twitter. You can call one of the three numbers to leave a voicemail which will be your tweet. I am somehow not very afraid about our friends. I hope and think they are safe and doing well. I only have really doubts about the medicines in Egypt; blood donating and of docs have left the country (I may hope not). Internet is only possible if you are very technical. But I think Manal and kids are safe. School are closed and most of the rest too.
Lots of love, Dori

My apologies, I posted about with the knowlegde of the news of last night. After I posted heard the news and all the other news I started to feel foolish. I hope from the bottom of my heart that everything with them is fine since before I post above. It was not until I read the topic "Where are you from" and read that she lives in Cairo. I hope someone heard of her soon.
Love, -D

I received a brief note from Manal on Wednesday - she and the family were okay but things are not good around them.  Her access to the internet was intermittent and she does not know when she will be on again.  Please keep praying that Manal and her family will be okay.  I am so worried.

I only just read this thread  otherwise I would have posted news from Manal earlier. She is o.k and her family, too. I communicated with her through Facebook and I saw half an hour ago that she had posted again yesterday, so she is o.k.

I hope things will become peaceful again in Cairo for the benefit of Egyptian people.

I am curious when she will be able to check in again. I saw those people cleaning the square together. That's what life is. Doing things together.
I will for always remember where I was when I heard the news that he had left. That's for sure.

Thank you so much for your concern, wishes, support and prayers..they meant the world. It was a very difficult expierence, have a lot to tell you especially on the 28th of January, it was an endless nightmare, but finally corruption has come to an end.... still very hard to believe :biggrin

I have alot and a lot of things that i would love to share with you. would do my best to be regularly online these days, but still i have my father in law in the ICU, he is on a ventilator now :( and i am trying to do the annual check ups to my son and i am engaged in some activities regarding ''role of civilians in the coming days''

I will be also posting some pictures of my family celebrating the fall of the regime with the people in the streets of Cairo

Love you all and miss you loads :hugfriend :hugfriend
