Several groups including the Muslim Brotherhood plan to participate in the day that has been dubbed "Friday Of Victory." Demands have been put for the for elimination of the 'Emergency Law' and the release of political prisoners.
Meanwhile, Mubarak is reportedly at his Red Sea resort residence in Sharm el-Sheikh, with his health in questionable condition. The former president has said that he would die on Egyptian soil.
