Iran warns of 'serious consequences' of Egypt 'massacre'

The Iranian Foreign Ministry has said that "Iran is following the bitter events in Egypt closely, disapproves of the violent actions, condemns the massacre of the population and warns of the serious consequences."

The Muslim Brotherhood claims that over 500 of their men were killed and 9,000 more were injured by security forces. The Egyptian health ministry claims only eight protesters were killed and 80 wounded. (AFP)
