Thousands of people are on the streets of Egyptian capital Cairo for rival demonstrations ahead of a referendum on Saturday. The opposition wants President Mohammed Mursi to scrap the referendum on a new constitution, his supporters say it should go ahead. Jon Leyne reports from Cairo.
就在周六的公投即将到来之际,埃及首都开罗数千人走上街头表示抗议。反对派希望总统穆罕默德·穆尔西取消对新宪法的公投,而其支持者称应该举行。Jon Leyne在开罗报道。
Once again, Egyptians have come out in force to the streets. It's been a show of strength by President Mursi's supporters and his opponents. Despite heavy security, members of the opposition managed to lever away some of the concrete blocks protecting the presidential palace, allowing the protesters closer to the palace itself. But it's largely been peaceful and noisy. The president's supporters are calling for a yes vote in the referendum on the new constitution, his opponents want the actual vote postponed, something the government has refused to do.
