From dusk until dawn they have been throwing molotov cocktails at us and firing live ammunition. I swear to God, they fired live ammunition. Someone standing next to me lost his eye, but he told me he will come back."<br/> The military council came to power in February after mass protests in Tahrir toppled former President Hosni Mubarak.<br/> Protesters accuse the council of a series of human rights violations and are demanding a transfer of power to civilian rule.<br/> Simon Hanna, Reuters.
