Egypt's military moves to dissolve parliament, suspend constitution

Statement by Egypt's Armed Forces Supreme Council comes as protesters refuse to evacuate main Cairo square, saying they want to ensure the country's transition to democracy.

Egypt's higher military council said on Sunday it will suspend the constitution, dissolve parliament, and form a committee to draft a new constitution for the country.
