Shots fired in capital's central square, as anti-government protests continue amid reports of prisons being attacked. Protesters have rejected the president's cabinet reshuffle and are demanding that he resign. Thousands of anti-government protesters in Cairo's Tahrir Square are standing their ground, despite troops firing into the air in a bid to disperse them. The show of defiance came as Egypt entered another turbulent day following a night of deadly unrest, when looters roamed the streets in the absence of police.
