Supporters of Egypt's President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi give out flowers to policemen on Police Day, which falls on January 25, and is also the anniversary of the 2011 uprising, in Tahrir Square, Cairo, Egypt, Monday, January 25, 2016. Egypt on Monday marked the fifth anniversary of the popular uprising that toppled longtime autocrat Hosni Mubarak but failed to bring the country the democracy and freedom the young, pro-democracy youths who fueled it had dreamt of. The run-up to the anniversary has seen stepped-up security measures in Cairo, a new wave of arrests and security checks in the city's downtown, an area popular with young, pro-democracy activists.
