President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi has extended a state of emergency in Egypt for another three months.

Egyptian President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi has won a second, four-year term in office, with more than 97% of the vote in last week's election, according to official results announced on Monday by the election commission, which put turnout at 41.05%.

Egyptians are voting on the final day of an election that is virtually guaranteed to hand a second four-year term to President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi.

The president of Egypt has expressed his "extreme concern" over the lack of progress in talks over the construction of a massive Nile dam in Ethiopia during a meeting with that country’s visiting prime minister.

Egyptian police have fired tear gas to disperse a rock-pelting crowd of residents defending their homes against bulldozers sent by the government to demolish the illegally-built dwellings.
