Egypt's ruling Supreme Council of the Armed Forces has called for crisis talks with the country's political forces, VOA reported. This came after the interim civilian cabinet submitted its resignation and three days of anti-military protests and a fierce security crackdown killed at least 24 people. Egypt's ruling council calls for crisis talks MENA news agency said the civilian cabinet of Prime Minister Essam Sharaf will continue to perform its duties until the military council decides whether to accept the resignations. The White House said Monday it was "deeply concerned" about the violence and urged restraint by all sides. UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon deplored the loss of life and called on authorities to guarantee the protection of human rights and civil liberties for all Egyptians, including the right to peaceful protest." Amnesty International on Tuesday accused Egypt's rulers of brutality sometimes exceeding that of former President Hosni Mubarak. Protests continued across the country Monday, including Cairo's central Tahrir Square, in what some are calling "Egypt's second revolution." Clashes also erupted near Egypt's Interior Ministry. Reuters quotes an army official as saying the ministry requested protection against the protesters, who want the head of the ruling military to swiftly hand over power to a civilian government.
