Egypt: New clashes kill 2 as Morsi backers defiant
None
Deadly clashes broke out during funerals of slain supporters Egypt's ousted Islamist president Sunday, as the leader of the Muslim Brotherhood urged his supporters to stand fast after more than 70 of them were killed in weekend violence.
Setting the stage for more confrontation, the military-installed interim president gave the prime minister the power to grant the military the right to arrest civilians in what government officials said could be a prelude to a major crackdown on Mohammed Morsi's supporters or Islamic militants who have stepped up attacks against security forces in the Sinai.
