The Turkish Embassy in Egypt has begun evacuating its citizens from the country, Trend reports with reference to the Sabah newspaper.
Some 55 supporters of President Mohammed Morsi, who were protesting in front of state institutions after morning prayers, were killed by the military in the Egyptian capital of Cairo this morning.
Last Wednesday, the Egyptian military suspended the Constitution, ousted President Mohamed Morsi, who was facing unprecedented protests, and promised to hold early elections for a new president. Egyptian Islamists do not recognize the changes and demand that Morsi be allowed to return to power.
