Martyrs who paid the ultimate price to topple the regime

This was not a bloodless revolution, a Twitter coup in which no one was hurt. Even the most conservative estimates say that 302 people died on Egypt's streets in the days of revolution. There are makeshift memorials to the dead in Tahrir Square and elsewhere. And on the web, accessible to anyone who wants to know the real price paid to liberate Egypt from Mubarak's grip, is a haunting page of the faces and details of the fallen. The people listed here, gathered from this site and elsewhere, are some of those who died in the 25 January uprising:

Amr Gharib, 25, graduate from Ain Shams University. He received two gunshot wounds in the stomach on 3 February in Tahrir Square and was unable to reach an ambulance. A friend wrote on his Facebook page: "He stood his ground and fought back until he got what he waited for all his life. He's the best of us – his friends – and always wanted to die for this cause. He never ran even though there were bullets flying."

Mohamed Atef, 25, was killed by a bullet fired by the police during clashes in the north of Egypt's Sinai region on 27 January. Eyewitnesses and a security source told Reuters that Atef was shot in the head while demonstrating in the town of Sheikh Zoweid. Security forces fired tear-gas to disperse dozens of protesters.

Ahmed Ahab Mohamed Fouad Abbas, 29, was an engineering graduate who died after being hit by rubber bullets. He was protesting in Tahrir Square on 28 January when he was hit by six bullets, three in the face and one in the eye. He was in a coma for five days and died on 3 February at the El Hussein University Hospital. According to German newspaper reports, doctors refused to release his body unless his family signed a statement saying he had been killed in a car crash. His family refused.

Muhammad Yassin, 26, was a doctor who was married with a newborn girl. He died on 29 January outside the Interior Ministry in Cairo from a gunshot wound to the chest. He was taken to hospital, but died in the ambulance before he arrived.

Mansour Abd El Latif was shot in his stomach by a pistol on 3 February in a street in Cairo. He was being transferred to hospital by taxi, but the driver panicked when gunshots were fired.

Tarek Mohmad Ammer, 33, was shot three times in the chest on 28 January while driving his sister and her children home. He had three children.

Hussein Gomaa Hussein, 30, was shot in the chest in Cairo on 28 January. He was disabled and was heading up a side street in Cairo to meet friends. He had just learnt another friend of his had been killed.
