CAIRO - Molatov cocktails were hurled during clashes between supporters of President Mohamed Morsi and his opponents outside his presidential palace, a Reuters witness reported on Wednesday.
The clashes erupted after the Muslim Brotherhood, the group that helped Morsi win a presidential election in June, told its supporters to go to the palace where opponents had gathered to protest against the president's expanded powers.
