Women struggle on Tahrir Square - 01/03/2013 - Egypt / Cairo / Cairo - Women demonstrating against the governement March 1st, 2013 on Tahrir square in Cairo. Women are still present in the demonstrations even though Tahrir square has become a dangerous place for women as sexual assault have become more common and violent. Since November, anti-harassment activists say, the frequency and intensity of sexual attacks in Tahrir has increased, peaking on January 25, the second anniversary of the revolution.
