The discrepancy could not be immediately reconciled.
The clashes have been raging since Friday in and around Tahrir, which served as the epicenter of the popular uprising that toppled longtime leader Hosni Mubarak in February.

The ruling generals described the clashes as part of a "conspiracy" against Egypt.
