Egypt anti-government protesters defy curfew

Egypt has extended its curfew to all cities as anti-government demonstrators in Cairo besiege key buildings, including the foreign ministry and the state broadcaster.

But the BBC's Wyre Davies, reporting from Cairo, said the protesters are defying the curfew and have taken over the streets.

The protesters are demanding the end to President Mubarak's decade's-long rule and economic reforms.
