A number of supporters of Egypt's recently ousted president Mohammed Morsi were killed in protests last Friday. The victims of the attack were killed after other pro-Morsi protestors allegedly stabbed a spokesperson of the anti-Morsi camp. The violence between the different supporters makes the hope of reconciliation between the factions very dim.

In the middle of a protest, Muslim Brotherhood members clashed with government forces, which resulted in the deaths of at least four protestors. Within the same day, Morsi supporters attacked Khaled Dawoud, a known former spokesman for the National Salvation front. This group is known to be very opposed to the Muslim brotherhood and the Morsi regime. Dawoud was taken from his car, beaten and then stabbed to death.

Egypt's vice-president Mohamed ElBaradei took to his Twitter account to condemn the attack. He tweeted, "The barbaric assault on Khaled Dawoud ... reflects the size of the tragedy we're living."

Morsi supporters were reported to have clashed with government security forces earlier of the same day. The clash was supposed to be part of a protest that planned to reach a number of key locations in the city, including Tahrir square. The group did not make it.

A number of local residents banded together to stop the Pro-Morsi march. There have been conflicting reports on the actual number of casualties that were sustained on each side. Violence occurred in a number of areas in the city, such as Central Manial, a neighborhood in Cairo.

The latest confrontation was said to result from after Muslim Brotherhood supporters were forced to disperse from Tahrir Square after they were bombarded by tear gas. The dispersed protestors ended in in Manial.

The protest is Day 2 for Morsi supporters, as those still loyal to the ousted president are still disobeying a security crackdown aimed at the Muslim Brotherhood.
