The head of Egypt’s ambulances told ONTV that at least three people they have received have been killed in the ongoing violence as the Muslim Brotherhood launched an attack on anti-President Mohamed Morsi protesters on Wednesday. The chief said that the three deaths were the result of gunshot wounds. They were named as Mahmoud Mohamed Ibrahim, Mohamed Khalaf and Mohamed Ahmed. Those are not the three earlier named by the Revolutionary Socialists Party and other activists. The two socialist activists murdered were named as Karam Gerges and Mohamed Essam. Activists shared photos of the two dead men with blood covering their faces and bodies. Al-Tayar Al-Shaabi, the popular current revolutionary movement confirmed the protesters death. Another protester, Hany Mohamed, was also reported to have been killed, although Bikyamasr.com could not confirm that specific information. The armed Brotherhood supporters were reported to have used knives, broken glass, Molotov cocktails, rubber bullets and live ammunition to disperse the opposition sit-in that followed a massive protest outside the presidential palace late on Tuesday, calling for Morsi to step down. The ambulances chief said over 350 people have been injured as Muslim Brotherhood supporters continue to attack Egyptian activists who had been protesting against President Mohamed Morsi.
