Hundreds of demonstrators in Suez and Port Said took part in marches calling for ousting President Mohamed Mursi on Friday.

A group of protesters marched from al-Tawfiqi Mosque in Port Said holding anti-Muslim Brotherhood banners and demanding that the president steps down before June 30.

National and political powers denounced a leaflet the Muslim Brotherhood has distributed. They accused the Brotherhood of implementing a plan to sabotage and torch several facilities and institutions.

In Suez, scores of opponents to Mursi's regime organised a protest in al-Arba'een Square to demand toppling the president.

The protesters said they did not belong to parties, adding that their goal is to express how the Muslim Brotherhood's regime failed.

The demonstrators urged all Egyptians to take part in the June 30 mass demonstrations to insist that this be the last day for Mursi as president after the country's deterioration during his first year of ruling.
