There’s been more unrest in the Egyptian capital, Cairo, as street protests continued against army rule.
State television says Egypt’s tax authority building was set alight late on February 4.
The latest violence was sparked by riots at a Port Said soccer game that killed 74 people.
Protesters accuse the security forces of failing to prevent the
bloodshed.
At least 12 people have been killed in Cairo in the last four days.
This last week was one of Egypt’s bloodiest since an uprising swept Hosni Mubarak from power a year ago and left the military in charge.
In a bid to end the violence, a group of lawmakers and public figures said they met with Interior Ministry officials to try to negotiate a cease-fire.
