Clashes at the Muslim Brotherhood’s headquarters in Mokattam district, Cairo, intensified late on Saturday, with reported assaults on journalists by group members adding fuel to fire.
Violence first broke out earlier in the day shortly after a meeting between Brotherhood Supreme Guide Mohamed Badie and Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal.
Protests against President Mohamed Morsi, who hails from the Muslim Brotherhood, and Badie who many critics say is the actual ruler of the country, were staged by dozens of protesters.

Diaa Rashwan, the newly-elected head of Egypt’s press syndicate, was quoted by several media reports as saying the presidency must apologize for the assault on journalists.
Conversely, senior Brotherhood spokesman Mahmoud Ghozlan said in a media statement that some journalists and photographers were involved in “provocative” acts along with protesters.
