Reports from Egypt indicate that three American nationals are among those arrested in today’s violence, Tuesday, November 22, 2011. Apparently they were throwing firebombs at a government building according to some reports, while other media sources state they were just filming local security forces, prompting their arrests.

According to a CNN report, the American Embassy in Egypt is looking into the validity of the report.

In the meantime, Tahrir Square continues to serve as the venue for the spreading violence and calls for a million-man march.
