it is in a district called giza, one of the major metro areas. there, dozens of protesters attacked the governor's office. they used molotov cocktails and set the building on fire. we understand fire trucks trying to get to the scene were block from doing so by the protesters. hundreds of employees in the building itself have been evacuated. police are using tear gas to push back protesters. these are initial reports but it does highlight the volatility of what is unfolding here. where supporters of the muslim brotherhood are continuing their protest despite the crackdown that took place yesterday on those two major squares that you were talking about. so a tense situation. keep in mind that the country is under emergency law. that effectively means that no public demonstrations or protests are allowed to take place. so it is going to be a quick test for the government here how it plans on dealing with these acts of disobedience by supporters of the ousted president and muslim brotherhood, what kind of tactics they're going to be using. one impor

i guess yes there will be protests but i don't think they will be as big as the giza park you know mentioned before because they are going to. they are going to are defined by. on a film list or you might say neil nation list production so if the society. protests would not be as big as others why did everyone replays for he's made commander shortly before the trial. well. more or less routine change but i can tell you about this there are of course there are always rumors about the changes in the military about whether or not speculate but i can tell you this that. we. also have negative effects. of effect is that the turkish military is no longer is the deciding influence. politics would say not to countries in the region like egypt for example brought to their knees by protests say is that a danger turkey will go the same way what's your assessment. no i don't think turkey faces. a classic kind of coop like happened in the. nineteen. chances of a military. military. like in the ninety's. yes there was this. is a free market economy for example you could have. in one thousand nine hundred

first of all, we have a government building in the government of giza which state tv is reporting beingacked by muslim brotherhood. supporters of the muslim brotherhood. they show pictures of that on fire. we can't independently verify that. but that's what they're reporting. we are also watching this death toll from yesterday's clashes which seems to be rising dramatically. earlier this morning it was just over 200. now it's well over 500. and we're expecting it to continue to rise as they count the bodies. a very horrific scene from yesterday where we saw the security forces clashing with the morsi supporters. and really turn that whole camp into an inferno. pictures of the camp set on fire. whole city block, really. the streets look like on fire and we're watching that. and also watching for the muslim brotherhood response. they vowed to go to the streets today. they said that they will not be quiet and the security forces have said that they're not going to allow that to happen. so, really, we're watching that. a recipe for another day of violence. >> all right, ian lee reporting li

>> the report of the attack on giza security governor happened while we were on the air right now andere has been calls for mass marches today, mostly funeral marches for those killed yesterday, but of course there is a seething anger within the rank-and-file of the muslim brotherhood and other morsi supporters. we are increasingly getting into a situation of a spiraling levels of violence across the country. tos could -- we have remember there is a state of emergency that was declared by the government yesterday as well as a nighttime curfew that was first imposed yesterday. the state of emergency lists due process rights, freedom of assembly is lifted, allows for the indefinite detention without charge of civilian, basically, allows police to crack down on all protest. but egypt has lived under a state of urgency for 30 years under mubarak. police officers acted with impunity regardless even after that was lifted. it is no surprise the state interim government revived one of the most hated, repressive tools of the mubarak regime in order to justify the crackdown. with regards to the
