CAIRO
The Egyptian military is planning to impose emergency and curfew in the Cairo district of Nasr City and Nahda square in Giza, political sources told Anadolu Agency.
Thousands of loyalists of ousted president Mohammad Morsi have been camping in Rabaa Al-Adawiya square and outside the Republican Guards headquarters in the Nasr City district.
Loyalists of Morsi, Egypt's first democratically elected president, have also been camping out in Nahda square in the vicinity of Cairo University in Giza.
The Egyptian Ambulance Authority (EAO) said 42 people were killed and 322 wounded outside the Republican Guards HQ in the early hours of Monday.
The Muslim Brotherhood said at least 53 people, including five children, were killed and hundreds wounded when army and police forces opened fire at peaceful protesters outside the HQ.
But the army insists that one officer was killed and several soldiers were wounded in an attempt by “a terrorist group” to storm the HQ.
Loyalists of Morsi have been camping outside Republican Guards HQ where they think he was being held since his ouster under an army roadmap that suspended the constitution and named the head of the Constitutional Court as interim president.
