Egyptian army tanks drive through Alexandria’s coastal promenade as security measures were tightened across Egypt on August 16, 2013, with the country’s Islamists calling for a “Friday of anger” after nearly 600 people were killed in a crackdown on their protest camps earlier in the week. With Egypt under a state of emergency, the interior ministry ordered police to use live fire if government buildings came under attack. AFP PHOTO / STR
