The new foreign minister of Egypt has urged restraint, a day after clashes in Cairo which killed at least 70 people.

In an interview with the BBC, Nabil Fahmy said all sides need to stop inciting and using violence.

On Saturday, supporters of the ousted president Mohammed Morsi clashed with security forces, and thousands are continuing a sit-in at a city mosque.

According to the report, Fahmy said his government would like to move forward 'but that requires cessation of violence and incitement'.
