Egyptian security forces have clashed with hundreds of supporters of ousted president Mohammed Morsi around the country. Egypt’s Interior Ministry said three people have been killed and more than 200 arrested, including women.
Riot police fired tear gas at protesters chanting against the military and the police at the Islamic Al-Azhar university in Cairo.
The night before, one person was killed when similar clashes broke out near the dormitory of the university.
Authorities have tightened security measures in the capital after Morsi's Muslim Brotherhood and its allies renewed calls for mass rallies.
The protests came as a defiance of the interim government’s latest move labelling the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist organisation. The announcement was meant to further cripple the group, ahead of a key vote on a draft constitution mid-January, seen by the interim government as a milestone in the transition plan.
