In Egypt, there have been further violent clashes across the country ahead of a constitutional referendum. <br /><br />At least one person was reported dead in Egypt’s second city Alexandria as Islamist supporters of ousted President Mohamed Mursi battled with police. <br /><br />It was a similar picture in the capital Cairo as security forces fired tear gas to disperse the crowd which had once again gathered after Friday prayers calling for a boycott to next Tuesday’s poll. <br /><br />The new constitution was finally unveiled last month by the North African country’s acting President Adly Mansour. <br /><br />The referendum aims to pave the way for both presidential and legislative elections later this year in an effort to return normality to Egypt’s streets.
