"Nic is under no illusions about the dangers ahead" – a personal reflection from Nic Robertson's wife, Margaret

Nic is under no illusions about the dangers ahead. This is major league bad stuff. I am as worried about him this time as I have ever been, in all our years together.

Sarah El Sirgany is a reporter for the Cairo-based World News Egypt newspaper. After her paper was shut down by government forces, she has been reporting all week in another way – Twitter. Yesterday she was in the streets, tweeting what she say. Last night she was on "Piers Morgan Tonight." "I don't know why the government put the internet back on.
