An image taken on the 20th of November 2011, featuring eight umoving bodies lying on the ground, at the corner of Tahrir Square and Tahrir Street, in Cairo, Egypt, during the protests which are still ongoing there. According to a tweet which was posted subsequent to this picture going live online, these eight people lying on the ground were not dead, rather they were injured. This may have originally been an improvised medical centre, which was set up to care for the injured due to the violent crackdown by security forces, and as the forces stormed towards into the area, many people fled from the vicinity through fear.
