Government forces were unleashing sniper fire that seemed indiscriminate. Along with scores of Morsi supporters, those who were felled included two journalists and the teenage daughter of a prominent Brotherhood leader.
In a formal complaint sent to the Nicaraguan ambassador, the Costa Rica Foreign Ministry demanded that its northern neighbor "cease all intention to reclaim Costa Rican territory."
A top Muslim Brotherhood politician whose teenage daughter was among those killed warned that the spreading violence could quickly turn Egypt into a new Syria.
