Hundreds of Palestinians hold solidarity rally in West Bank in support of Egypt uprising

Hundreds of Palestinians on Saturday held a solidarity rally in the West Bank town of Ramallah in support of Egypt's anti-government uprising.
  
The protesters, with university students in their ranks as well as members of foreign NGOs, waved Egyptian and Palestinian flags as well as portraits of Egypt's late president Gamal Abdel Nasser, a hero figure in the Arab world.
  
"This demonstration is a message of solidarity and brotherhood with the Egyptian people battling for democracy and reforms," MP Hanan Ashrawi, an executive committee member of the Palestine Liberation Organization, told AFP.
