Egypt unrest: Morsi declares emergency in three cities
World
Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi has declared a state of emergency in the cities of Port Said, Suez and Ismalia after days of deadly unrest.
A curfew from 21:00 to 06:00 will be imposed for 30 days from Monday.
At least 33 people died at the weekend in Port Said, where a court judgment sparked rioting. Unhappiness with Mr Morsi's rule fuelled unrest elsewhere.
Mr Morsi has invited opposition politicians to a "national dialogue" meeting on Monday.
Protests erupted in Port Said after a court sentenced 21 local people to death over riots that killed 74 people after a football game last February.
The violence began when fans of Port Said side al-Masry attacked visiting supporters from Cairo club al-Ahly.
Fans flooded on to the pitch, attacking Ahly players and fans as the match ended.
Most of the victims died of concussion, cuts and suffocation.
About 30 people were killed in unrest in Port Said on Saturday, with a further three dying at a mass funeral on Sunday.
