CAIRO:
Egypt's Prime Minister Hazem al-Beblawi vowed on Wednesday that Islamist
protest camps in Cairo will be dispersed, after the presidency
announced the failure of foreign mediation with Mohamed Morsi's
supporters.
"There will be no going back on dispersing
the Rabaa and Nahda sit-ins," state television quoted him as saying of
two Cairo protest camps set up after the army ousted Morsi as president
on July 3.
"We did not disperse the sit-ins till now out
of respect for the sanctity of the month of Ramadan," he added,
referring to the holy Muslim fasting month that ends on Wednesday night
in Egypt.
