Description

Egyptian demonstrators lay siege to the Interior Ministry in downtown Cairo.

This is the second day of violence at anti-military demonstrations following the deaths of more than 70 football fans in Port Said on Wednesday.

Although most were killed in a stampede, protesters blame the tragedy on the military for failing to protect fans attending the game.

So far, three have been killed in the latest street battles - two in Suez and one in Cairo.

Although security forces are using tear gas to disperse crowds, demonstrators continue to regroup and launch new attacks.

Many more are expected to gather in Tahrir Square later on Friday to mark what has been dubbed the "Friday of Anger."
