Egypt: Death toll put at 365 as strikes continue

CAIRO (AP) — At least 365 people died in the 18 days of anti-government protests that pushed out longtime Egyptian leader Hosni Mubarak, the Health Ministry said today in the first official accounting of the death toll. Minister Ahmed Sameh Farid said it was only a preliminary count of civilians killed and did not include police or prisoners. And while Mubarak is gone, frustration with the quality of life — from working conditions to environmental concerns — has kept demonstrators in the streets as the economy continues to falter.
