Army renews Abbasseya curfew, says state TV

The curfew imposed in the Abbasseya neighborhood of Cairo and the areas surrounding the Defense Ministry has extended for the sixth day, state TV quoted a military source as saying on Wednesday.

The TV added that the army has decided to renew the curfew that was imposed last Friday.
 
Following Friday's deadly violence in which one soldier died and almost 400 people were wounded, the army imposed a curfew between 11 pm and 7 am.
