Egyptian military removes Morsi

Egypt’s military has suspended the country’s Islamist-backed constitution and called early elections.

The military also announced that embattled President Mohammed Morsi will be replaced.

Cheers erupted among millions of protesters nationwide who have been demanding Mr Morsi step down.

The president’s aide said Mr Morsi has been moved to an undisclosed location.

Egypt’s military chief warned that the armed forces and police would deal “decisively” with any violence.
