CAIRO: Hundreds of supporters of ousted president Mohamed Morsi were given safe passage out of a Cairo protest camp stormed by Egyptian security forces in a bloody crackdown earlier Sunday.
Television footage showed Morsi supporters leaving the Rabaa al-Adawiya encampment through a security corridor, some flashing victory signs.
A security official confirmed to AFP that hundreds of people were taking advantage of the safe passage offer but said some diehards stayed behind amid renewed clashes with security forces. (AFP)
