Egyptian military says prime minister resigns amid protests
Egypt's military rulers announced the resignation of prime minister Ahmed Shafiq, chosen by ousted leader Mubarak, and named Essam Sharaf as caretaker premier. Sharaf, ex-transport minister, must form a transition cabinet as demands to purge the old regime and dissolve Mubarak allies intensify. The uprising seeks accountability for security officials and a return to civilian rule, while the economy and security situation remain fragile.
