Some Barricades Removed as Thousands Clean Tahrir Square (NYT homepage headline)
Thousands lent a hand to a volunteer cleanup of Tahrir Square, the epicenter of the new Egypt. Sanitation trucks deployed on its outskirts and soldiers removed some of the barricades surrounding the square. The protest organizers had said they would leave it up to the people whether to stay or go. A small group on Saturday seemed intent on staying, for now, saying they wanted Hosni Mubarak, the president driven from office, to be tried.
