Activists warn Egyptian army over staying in power

ACTIVISTS gathered at Cairo's iconic Tahrir Square warned Egypt's ruling military yesterday they stand ready to reignite the revolution if the army clings to power.

"We're still here to carry the torch" of the revolution, warned Marwan Adel at the square which in February 2011 became the cradle of the uprising that ousted former president Hosni Mubarak.

"The army will always have Tahrir to face up to," said Adel, a teacher, who like several other activists regularly returns to the square. "We're ready to restart the revolt."
