"Two of them were detained during the protest" in the Egyptian capital Cairo, a spokeswoman for France 24, Nathalie Lenfant, told AFP.
A third journalist, who was slightly injured during the protest, was separately detained at a barricade, she said.
Media watchdog group Reporters Without Borders (RSF) earlier condemned as "shocking" attacks in Cairo against foreign media by partisans of Egypt`s embattled President Hosni Mubarak, saying journalists from the BBC, Al-Jazeera, CNN, Al-Arabiya, ABC News and other outlets had been attacked.(*)
