Millions of protesters demanded the overthrow of the regime of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak. Despite being predominantly peaceful in nature, the revolution was not without violent clashes between security forces and protesters, with at least 846 people killed and 6,000 injured.

On February 11, following weeks of determined popular protest and pressure, Mubarak resigned from office.
