(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - Protesters gathered in Cairo's iconic Liberation Square, responding to a call for a massive turnout on what activists dubbed as "Friday of Anger."
In central Cairo, protesters besieged Egypt's Interior Ministry after several thousand protesters threw rocks towards the building through the night.
Security forces resorted to tear gas to disperse the crowd but the protesters continually regrouped.
Latest reports say that at least one person has been killed in the Friday's clashes.
The fresh street protests came on the heels of deadly overnight clashes between Egyptian police and demonstrators in the capital and also the northeastern city of Suez.
One person died in Cairo from a shotgun pellet wound and two were killed in Suez as police used live rounds to hold back angry protesters attempting to force their way into a police station.
Egypt's anti-government protesters, angered by the deaths of 74 people following a football match on Wednesday, accuse the military rulers of mismanaging the country during its fragile transition.
The ruling Supreme Council of Armed Forces (SCAF) took power after the Egyptian dictator Hosni Mubarak's regime was toppled in mid-February 2011 in a popular revolution.
SCAF has, however, failed to meet its pledge of forming a civilian government despite repeated calls from people and months after a six-month deadline the council had set for the government formation task.
