Troops are on the streets of Egypt's capital tonight as the government struggles to quell widespread rioting. Thousands of people are taking part in the biggest anti-government protests for over 30 years.

At least one person has been killed in clashes with riot police using tear gas and rubber bullets. Soldiers are enforcing a curfew in the country as President Mubarak faces the biggest ever challenge to his authority.

Jon Leyne witnessed a day of protest - and violence.
