CAIRO (Reuters) - Thousands of Egyptian protesters continued to roam the streets after the 4 p.m. (1400 GMT) curfew started, defying an army warning that anyone violating the order would be in danger.

They thronged central Cairo, where army armoured vehicles were stationed. Protesters also stayed out in Alexandria.

"It does not feel like there is a curfew, I can see thousands marching next to me," a witness told Reuters from Alexandria, Egypt's second largest city.
