Demonstrations in Egyptian universities

Students in Egyptian Universities resumed demonstrations for the seventh day to protest U.S. threats of a military strike against Iraq. The demonstrators accused the US of working to weaken Arabs and achieve Israeli interests.

Students at Ain Shams University distributed a statement entitled "Before the Bullets Speak," in which they asked the Egyptian government to allow the opportunity for struggle against the US aggression.

The Egyptian police posted special guards at the US embassy.

The students also criticized the United Nations and the Security Council for submitting to the US will.
