THE Australian's Middle East correspondent John Lyons has been targeted by Egyptian "goons" raiding his hotel room as world condemnation of attacks on journalists grows.
Several major media outlets covering the clashes in Cairo's Tahrir Square said their journalists had been stalked and attacked by supporters of embattled President Hosni Mubarak or detained by the military.
Lyons had his Cairo hotel room forcibly raided by six leather-jacketed "goons"  overnight, apparently looking for broadcast equipment.
