Map of Mansour St. protest (updated)

Speaking of the geography of the current street protests in Cairo, and my observations from this morning and this afternoon, here's a quick map that shows much of the city is now cordoned off.

Update: I've corrected some errors on the original map and added a couple of more details. See also this latest post on the fighting moving to Nubar Street, and some history of the names of these streets.

I wonder if there is more barbed wire in Cairo than Kabul and Baghdad combined. In future children will be reading your blog in history lessons under the title "letters from Occupied Cairo".

Revolution until victory! Wish the best for Tahrir.
