Egypt Update




NOW: Hundreds of thousands gather in front of the Presidential Palace in Cairo, as the armed forces give Morsi's government a 48-hour ultimatum to "meet the demands of the people". Egyptian TV stations are now showing the countdown on their broadcasts. Army helicopters flew over Cairo earlier carrying Egyptian and army flags. We may be witnessing the early stirrings of a military coup (albeit one with fairly widespread popular support).
