Default Egypt unrest

Oftop
The BBC's Jon Leyne in Cairo says crowds of protesters formed a human chain around the Mugamma, a major government building
Egypt is increasing pay and pensions for public-sector workers by 15% as protesters defy attempts to return the country to normality.

Banks have re-opened, but the stock exchange will not resume trading until Sunday 13 February and the Egyptian pound has fallen to a six-year low.

The government put up $2.2bn of short-term debt up for auction to inject money into the battered economy.

Thousands of protesters have stayed in Cairo's Tahrir Square for a 14th day.

They say they will only leave when President Hosni Mubarak stands
