Egypt's presidency has declared a state of emergency after scores of people were killed when security forces stormed protest camps in Cairo.
The camps had been occupied by supporters of former president Mohammed Morsi, who was deposed in early July, reports the BBC.
Security forces say 95 people have been killed, but the Muslim Brotherhood says hundreds have died.
The state of emergency will begin at 16:00 local time (1400 GMT), and last for a month.
