Speaking on the condition of anonymity, a senior Egyptian forensics official told the Associated Press that human remains recovered from the wreckage of EgyptAir Flight 804 suggest that there had been an explosion on board the plane: “The logical explanation is that an explosion brought it down.”

Egyptian air and naval forces have found some of the wreckage from EgyptAir flight 804, which crashed in transit from Paris to Cairo yesterday, the Egyptian army said on Friday, including some of the 66 passengers’ “personal belongings.” The Greek defense minister said a body part was also found.

An EgyptAir passenger jet carrying 66 people from Paris to Cairo disappeared over the Aeagen Sea, in Egyptian airspace, early Thursday morning. President François Hollande confirmed that the plane had crashed. Paris prosecutors have reportedly opened an investigation.

An early-morning wave of attacks on the Sinai Peninsula left at least 38 dead and dozens more injured. According to the AP, the terrorist group ISIS has already claimed responsibility for the attacks on Facebook.

At least 20 people were killed Sunday in a riot outside an Egyptian Premier League soccer match, the Associated Press reports. Security officials said the violence started when ticketless Zamalek fans tried to force their way into the game.

Late-night violence at the site of a sit-in held by supporters of ousted Egyptian president Mohamed Morsi left at least 42 dead—nearly all protesters—and over 300 wounded, and led the right-wing Salafist party Al Nour to suspend its participation in the army's "roadmap" for transition.

The AFP reports that at least three people were killed when the Egyptian army opened fire on protestors demonstrating in favor of deposed Egyptian president Mohamed Morsi outside the barracks where he's being held.

Tanks are rolling in the streets of Cairo. The deadline for the Egyptian Army's pre-announced coup (or righteous seizure of power, depending on whom you ask) has passed, but President Mohamed Morsi, still at work in the Republic Guard barracks, shows no sign of backing down.

The U.S. Embassy in Cairo could use a good social media editor after two disastrous days on Twitter. The embassy's problems began Tuesday, when they (or whoever is in charge of their Twitter account) tweeted a link to The Daily Show's passionate defense of "Egypt's Jon Stewart" Bassem Youseff, who was arrested last weekend for insulting President Mohamed Morsi and Islam. That tweet didn't go over well with the offices of Morsi or the Muslim Brotherhood.

CAIRO, EGYPT— The area between the Hardee's and Pizza Hut, on a dark and narrow road off of Tahrir Square, has become known as the "Bermuda Triangle." This is where women's bodies seem to disappear into the chaos and anger ripping through protesting crowds.

They roam the toughest streets of Cairo without fear, beg for food, get into fights, run from tear gas shells, and if you stare at them, they stare right back. No, we're not just talking about Egypt's youthful protesters, we're talking about the country's feral cats. There's thousands of these urban felines wandering around the city and like everyone else, they hustle to survive. Here's a photo tribute to these furry badasses below and more in the gallery above. They're everywhere!

Kader Hamza Pasha street is stand-off central. CSF police on one side, kids on the other side. Rocks vs. tear-gas. Molotov cocktails vs. rubber bullets. With increased protesters out today–some reports estimated there were close to 200,000 people in the square today –today's battles were much more intense and unpredictable. One photojournalist told us that today's vibe reminded her of Egypt's last revolution in January of 2011, the one that threw the country into a state of anarchy until the army took over. As you watch the video above, remember that everyone involved in today's clashes were willing to die for their cause, even the ignoble ones.

For most of the afternoon Sunday, the open roof deck at the InterContinental Cairo Semiramis hotels had two sunbathers and a young boy swimming in the Olympic size pool by himself. Six stories down, and 200 hundred yards away, on Abd El-Quader Hamza street, reckless policemen (aka the Central Security Force, or CSF) were launching tear-gas shells against the multiple protesters who were hurling rocks back at them.

The three American students arrested in Cairo earlier this week for allegedly tossing back too many Molotov cocktails will either be freed from jail or have already been freed, depending on which news source defines your reality.

"College is such a joke," 21-year-old Indiana University student Luke Gates wrote on Twitter on Monday. Less of a joke: Egyptian jail, where Gates and two other American college kids are after being arrested for allegedly throwing firebombs on police during yesterday's protests.

If it weren't for the Arabic-language chyron, you might have trouble telling whether this video—in which riot-gear police beat protesters with batons and drag a protester by the hair through the streets—was shot in Cairo or on a University of California campus. Even the background graffiti is written in American!

Two protestors are reportedly dead following an early-morning army raid on a mass demonstration in Cairo's Tahrir Square, where hundreds of thousands had gathered to call for the prosecution of former Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak and the resignation of army chief Mohammed Hussein Tantawi, the current head of state. The army denied using live ammunition, though, according to The Guardian, "images on social media websites appeared to show spent casings of both blank and live shells." Eyewitnesses said protestors were beaten and taken away in vans; the military, unsurprisingly, doesn't remember it like that:

CBS News says it's obtained a photo that shows former Egyptian president Hosni Mubarak waving goodbye to Cairo from a helicopter on Feb. 11th after giving up control of the country. Cropped out of the photo is the crowd of protestors giving him the finger and/or mooning him. Bye, Mubarak!

Tens of thousands of protesters again converged on Cairo's Tahrir Square, even as vice president and torture chief Omar Suleiman said that the ruling party was "on the right path to getting out of the current crisis." This is the 15th day of demonstrations against the autocratic rule of Hosni Mubarak.

The internet is in a snit today over a tweet sent by fashion house Kenneth Cole that used the current civil unrest in Egypt (and the #Cairo hashtag) to advertise its new collection. Kenneth Cole is worse than Mubarak! [Updated]
