Morsi Tells Egypt Army To Withdraw Ultimatum -- Al Jazeera
President insists he has constitutional legitimacy as deadline from army looms.
Morsi insisted on his "constitutional legitimacy" on his Twitter account on Tuesday night, hours after the Army published a plan to disolve parliament, rewrite the constitution and hold new elections if he could not end protests against his rule by Wednesday.
Morsi faces huge pressure to resign from his position, and a warning from the military that politicians must resolve the crisis or face the army's transitional "roadmap".
Four people were killed amid a third night of protests in Egypt. A health ministry source told Al Jazeera that they were killed in clashes in Giza - three were shot dead at a pro-Mosri demonstration in Nahda Square near Cairo University, and another was killed by gunfire while taking part in march.
The Muslim Brotherhood office in Helwan was reported to have been ransacked and set on fire.
