<p>Egypt&#8217;s prime minister has resigned, the country&#8217;s military rulers said.</p>
<p>Ahmed Shafiq was appointed by president Hosni Mubarak shortly before he was ousted.</p>
<p>Mr Shafiq&#8217;s departure meets a key demand of the opposition protest movement.</p>
<p>The former air force officer was named prime minister by Mr Mubarak shortly after the January 25 outbreak of massive anti-government protests. </p>
<p>Mr Mubarak stepped down on February 11, but Mr Shafiq stayed in office at the head of a caretaker government.</p>
<p>Leaders of the 18-day uprising have been pressing the military to fire Mr Shafiq.</p>
<p>A brief statement posted by the military on its official website said it had chosen former transport minister Essam Sharaf as the new prime minister and asked him to form a new Cabinet.</p>
