Violence erupted between Egyptian security forces and supporters of ousted President Mohammed Morsi early Monday morning, leaving 34 of its supporters dead, according to the Muslim Brotherhood. Al-Akhbar quotes a Health Ministry official who put the death toll at 35, including a police officer who was killed. Reports from the scene are conflicting, as Morsi’s supporters who were holding a sit-in contend that the military fired the first shots, while the military says terrorists trying to storm the Republican Guard building fired first.
