Egypt: Morsi's 2 spokesmen quit
None
A foreign ministry official says two spokesmen for President Mohamed Morsi have quit in the latest defections from his embattled administration as protesters and the military challenge his authority.
The official says career diplomats Omar Amer and Ihab Fahmy have stepped down after nearly five months speaking on behalf of Morsi. The official spoke Tuesday on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media. The move compounds the woes for Morsi as he faces massive protests calling for his ouster.
