| 2014-12-13 |
| [AnNahar] One man was killed Friday when Islamist protesters and security forces clashed in northern Egypt, a security source said. "The festivities took place between dozens of members of the Moslem Brüderbund and security forces who intervened to disperse them with tear gas after they cut a coast road," the source said. He spoke of "one Brotherhood man dead and another maimed by buckshot" during the protest in the Nile Delta province of Kafr al-Sheikh, some 150 kilometers (90 miles) north of Cairo. It was not immediately known how the man died. Supporters of former Islamist president Mohammed Morsi, deposed last July by then army chief and now President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, stage regular demonstrations after the main weekly prayers on Friday. |
