　　Clashes have broken out in Egypt between supporters and opponents of ousted¹ President Monhamed Morsi, killing² at least 1 person and injured 25 others.

　　The violence came after thousands of Morsi supporters started fresh marches across the country protesting against military rule.

　　Nader Farag, one protester, says the military chief, General Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi and the interim³ president Adly Mansour should step down.

　　"I demand the military to leave, El-Sissi must leave as soon as possible and Adly Mansour also must leave he does not have a real role, all of them must leave. We want clean elections that bring a president who fixes the situation."

　　Meanwhile, Morsi's critics accused the Islamist president of trying to monopolize⁴ power and ignoring calls for reform.

　　The Friday rallies are the first since Brotherhood⁵ spiritual leader Mohammed Badie was arrested and accused of instigating⁶ violence.

　　Another 80 Muslim Brotherhood members, including senior leaders, were taken into custody⁷ on the eve of the rallies.

　　Nearly 1,000 people were killed in weeklong conflicts between Morsi's supporters and security forces since early August.

　　Pro-Morsi protestors have continued demonstrations⁸ for the free of the ousted President, despite the military forces announced a state curfew and vowed⁹ to disperse¹⁰ any mass gatherings¹¹ or sit-ins.
