A
number of Jordanian activists staged protests in front of the Egyptian
embassy in Amman to express their support for the Egyptians who have
taken to the streets demanding the ouster of President Hosni Mubarak
since the last few days.

Dozens of demonstrators, including trade unionists, Islamists and
members of political parties, raised slogans on Saturday against
Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and called on him to step down, Xinhua
reported on Sunday.

They voiced support for the Egyptian protesters.

The protesters in Egypt, which are calling for democracy, the ouster
of President Hosni Mubarak and more employment opportunities, are some
of the largest since Mubarak took power about 30 years ago.
