A demonstration against the English occupation became Black Saturday in the Egyptian capital of Cairo

A black Saturday became a demonstration against the English occupation in the Egyptian capital of Cairo. Protesters fired in the city’s wealthy neighborhoods and killed 17 foreigners. King Faru dismissed the government and dissolved the parliament. At that time, a military group began to organize itself to expel the king from power in the hope of defending the interests of foreign states, including the young Gamal Abdel Nasser, who would then be an important name in Egypt and internationally.
