UN to evacuate staff from Egypt

By TAREK EL-TABLAWY and MENELAOS HADJICOSTIS Associated Press <BLOCK>CAIRO (AP) - The United Nations began to evacuate much of its staff in Egypt on Thursday, while more than 4,000 passengers made their escape through Cairo airport a day after the protests gripping the Egyptian capital degenerated into a bloody street brawl.

The U.N. was sending in two chartered aircraft to take 350 staff and their families to Cyprus, said Rolando Gomez, a spokesman for its peacekeeping mission on the Mediterranean island. Each aircraft was to make two roundtrips to Cyprus.

It was unclear whether they would remain on the island or head to other destinations.
