Field Marshal Hussein Tantawi promised to accept the resignations on Television. He also said presidential elections will be held by June. The conflict between Egyptian street demonstrators and the military-led government is likely to escalate because the parliamentary elections are so close.
Despite the military council's pledge yesterday to speed up the transition to civilian rule, there are still angry demonstrations in Cairo and Fresh clashes have broken out. The violence has already left 35 people dead and nearly 2,000 have been injured.
Egyptians have been angered by human rights violations. Since the fall of president Hosni Mubarak , protesters believe nothing has been changed and the military still keeps their power.
some angry protesters in Tahrir Square would prefer next week's election to be called off. Most of them would not trust the military and dissatisfield with what council promised on Tuesday.
On the other side, the Muslim brotherhood are happy with the election, some egyptians think that's because they probably will win. Anmor Noman, member from Muslim brotherhood,'we need the election, but we do not care who win.'
protesters vowed not to leave until the military council steps down. Clashes between police and demonstrators erupted in several other cities after Tantawi's speech on TV.
