Egypt's Prime Minister Hisham Kandil has condemned 1 recent attacks by protesters on state property and urged the protesters to restrain from violence in achieving their goals.
"I call on them, throughout these incidents, to look at the coming elections and prepare for them so they get the change they want. But change through violence is rejected and the Egyptian people do not allow it. We are working as a government to stop this rioting and are thwarting 2 any attempts to attack government buildings or people."
