At least 91 protesters and police were eared dead in Cairo last night as a ‘day of rage’ ended in inevitable bloodshed.

The fresh violence erupted when tens of thousands of protesters took to the streets after Friday prayers.

The Muslim Brotherhood – the party of the ousted president – called for a ‘Friday of Anger’ in response to the mass killing on Wednesday when security forces cleared protest camps set up after last month’s military coup. Beforehand the military-backed government had authorised the use of live ammunition, warning anyone attacking the police or official buildings would be dealt with ‘severely’.

Tanks and armoured vehicles blockaded key routes around Cairo and when protesters converged on Ramses Square, police fired tear gas and gunshots echoed around the capital. In a nearby mosque, transformed into a field hospital, one witness counted at least 35 bodies.

Much of the anger was directed at Egypt’s army commander General Abdel Fattah al-Sisi.

‘The people want the butcher executed,’ said Mustafa Ibrahim, 37, as he marched with a crowd of several thousand demonstrators.

But the population remains deeply divided, with residents helping the army block access to Cairo’s Rabaa al-Adawiya mosque, the focal point of Wednesday’s bloodbath when at least 638 were killed and thousands injured.

While the capital has seen the worst of violence, there are increasing fears it will spread to popular Red Sea resorts, just an eight-hour drive from Cairo.

More than 40,000 British holidaymakers are in Egypt, predominantly in these resorts.

Germany’s Foreign Ministry advised Germans not to go anywhere in Egypt, prompting Thomas Cook and Tui to suspend all holidays.

Meanwhile in the UK, both Thomas Cook and Thomson, owned by Tui, are continuing to fly out holidaymakers, citing current Foreign and Commonwealth Office advice that it remains safe to do so.

Thomson said: ‘Should FCO advice change we have contingency plans in place and we will act accordingly.’

Thomas Cook said: ‘Further to our FCO’s directive, Thomas Cook UK & Ireland’s booking conditions will remain as normal until such a time as their advisory changes.’

Kuoni yesterday began offering UK holidaymakers worried by the violence refunds or a ‘suitable alternative holiday’.
