EGYPTIAN police have dragged supporters of ousted president Mohamed Morsi out of a Cairo mosque, where crowds tried to attack them.
Morsi loyalists had refused to leave the mosque, which was surrounded by security forces, including police who fired in the air to keep mobs from attacking the Islamists.
Witnesses said that Egyptian security forces stormed the al-Fateh mosque after firing tear gas at hundreds of supporters of the country's ousted president barricaded inside.
Local journalist Shaimaa Awad said on Saturday that security forces rounded up protesters inside the mosque, located in Cairo's central Ramses Square.
The sound of gunfire could be heard in the background.
Egypt's official news agency MENA reported that gunmen opened fire on security forces from the mosque's minaret.
Local television stations broadcast live footage of soldiers firing assault rifles at the minaret.
The mosque served as a field hospital and morgue following clashes on Friday in the area.
The protesters barricaded themselves inside overnight out of fears of being beaten by vigilante mobs or being arrested by authorities.
