25 January Revolution Day is observed in Egypt every January 25, commemorating the start of the Egyptian Revolution of 2011. This day celebrates the popular uprising that began on January 25, which involved numerous demonstrations, plaza occupations, marches, and civil disobedience, all aimed at overthrowing President Hosni Mubarak. The protesters voiced grievances against police brutality, lack of free elections, corruption, and economic issues such as high unemployment and low wages. Mubarak resigned on February 11, 2011, leading to celebrations across the nation. Following his resignation, the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces took over leadership until the presidential elections on June 25, 2012, when Mohamed Morsi became Egypt's first democratically elected president.
