Violence flares in Cairo as thousands protest Morsi regime throughout Egypt

Protests turn violent in key Egyptian cities again on Friday, as thousands take to the streets to demand the end of Morsi’s government.

Protesters threw petrol bombs and stones at the British Embassy in Cairo and clashed with police and security guards, Al-Arabiya reported.

Several thousand people have gathered in Tahrir square on Friday, RT’s Bel Trew said.

Al-Arabiya said there were sporadic clashes with the police in Cairo earlier, and several protesters were injured by rubber bullets.

Protesters dressed in black marched through the streets of Port Said, Alexandria and Ismailia chanting anti-Morsi slogans and proclaiming their anger over the nearly 60 victims of the recent civil unrest.

The Suez Canal city of Port Said saw crowds of protesters shouting, shaking their fists and carrying portraits of those shot in fierce clashes with police last weekend.

“We will die like they did, to get justice!” the protesters chanted according to Reuters. Recent unrest in the Suez Canal area has prompted the Egyptian government to deploy the army and impose a curfew, as the head of the armed forces warned the state was on the verge of “collapse.”

In Alexandria hundreds of marching protesters blocked a major traffic intersection, Reuters said.
