Scattered anti-coup protests held in Egypt

Thousands of supporters of deposed Egyptian president Mohamed Morsi have held protests across the country, but called off a planned rally at Cairo's iconic Tahrir Square for fear it could turn violent. The health ministry said that one person was killed during clashes between anti-coup protesters and local residents in the Sharqia proivince and that seven had been injured during similar violence in the town of Damietta. Police fired teargas in the city of Alexandria to break up clashes between opponents and supporters of Morsi, security sources said, but there were no casualties and demonstrations in other parts of the country were largely peaceful.
