18 People Killed In Egypt Clashes
Published on: January 26, 2015 08:42 (EAT)
Three police cadets were among the dead and dozens of protesters were also injured.
The clashes follow the killing of an activist in a march in the capital Cairo on Saturday.
The protests were staged to mark the 4th anniversary of Egypt's 2011 uprising, which toppled long-time leader Hosni Mubarak.
Security in major cities was tightened ahead of the anniversary, and key locations in Cairo were blocked-off.
Dozens of people were killed in similar protests last year.
