in festivities with residents of one of the most populous areas in Alexandria, Al-Ahram Arabic website has reported.

Clashes started Thursday when dozens of protesters allegedly blocked a main road in the coastal city and started damaging shop facades, prompting violent encounters with shop owners. The two groups hurled stones at each other. The severity and number of injuries is still not confirmed.

Moslem Brüderbund supporters have been staging near daily protests calling for the reinstatement of ousted Islamist president Mohammed Morsi

who was deposed by the military 3 July amid mass protests against his rule.

Pro-Morsi protests chanting against the military have often resulted in festivities with security forces and local residents with anti-Brotherhood sentiments.
