'100 killed' as Egypt security forces clear Cairo sit-ins

Smoke and fire during the operation in Rabaa al-Adawiya Square Members of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt said 100 people have been killed as Egyptian authorities attempt to clear pro-Morsi sit-ins in Cairo, while Egyptian officials reported that two members of the security forces were killed on Monday morning.  
An AFP correspondent who counted 15 bodies at a makeshift morgue at the Rabaa al-Adawiya camp said many of them appeared to have died from gunshot wounds.
The BBC reported that security forces were using armoured cars and bulldozers to clear the protests, while al-Jazeera reported protesters saying snipers were firing at them from the roofs of military buildings in Rabaa al-Adawiya.  
Police have cut off side streets and gunfire has been heard, and teargas is reported to have been used against protesters.
The transport ministry suspended all train services until further notice, in a bid to stop Brotherhood reinforcements flooding in to Cairo.
Egypt’s Minister of Interior released statement on Monday morning saying security forces would move to disperse both camps, but added that it wanted to avoid bloodshed and would provide a safe exit to protesters not wanted by prosecution.
Authorities in Egypt have issued several warnings to the Islamist demonstrators to end the protests, and on Sunday police officials said security forces would besiege the two camps within 24 hours.
