48 HOURS TIL WE STEP IN: Egyptian General Says Army Will Intervene If Crisis Not Resolved In 48 Hours
CAIRO, July 1 (Reuters) - The head of Egypt's armed forces gave politicians 48 hours on Monday to answer demands made by the Egyptian people or the military would offer its own "road map for the future".
In a statement read on state television, General Abdel Fattah al-Sisi called mass protests on Sunday, which called for Islamist President Mohamed Mursi to resign, an "unprecedented" expression of the popular will.
