The Internet service has been down in Cairo since midnight Friday as protestors are reportedly planning massive gatherings after prayers.

Mobile phone communication was also disrupted on Friday morning.

The signal of the Arabic news channel of Al-Jazeera, also could not be received around midday Friday by some citizens in Cairo.

On Thursday, Egypt's Interior Ministry warned in a statement against any moves against public security or damage to public and property.

The nationwide protest, which began on Tuesday, has left several dead and hundreds injured, according to Egyptian media.
