“A majority of them have been forced to retreat following a heavy amount of tear gas that has been fired by security forces. The military who guard the presidential palace have also used live ammunition, according to protesters who ran away from the southern gates of the presidential palace. But protesters are still gathering on the road leading to the palace. Many of them are not far from the front gate. They say they're here to voice their demands and show the military that they want a civilian rule and no amount of tear gas or live ammunition will take them away from their demands. The protesters are saying the revolution is incomplete because the military is still in power. They are saying the military should go back to the barracks and that power should be handed to a civilian government. Many of them are saying they are not satisfied with the way the revolution has been going on over the past two years.”
