Cairo (CNN) -- Egyptian security forces stormed two massive makeshift camps filled with ousted President Mohamed Morsy's supporters, bulldozing tents and escorting away hundreds of protesters. Within three hours of the raid, forces had cleared the smaller of the two camps -- the Nahda camp, near the Cairo University campus. Egypt raid: What you need to know But the larger proest-- near the Rabaa al-Adawiya mosque in eastern Cairo -- has proven trickier, with forces facing heavy resistance. The military called in its special forces. In the chaos of the raids, it was impossible for CNN to verify the claims and counter claims of casualties. Protester: Egypt is a ticking time bomb Police fire tear gas at pro-Morsy camp Egypt: Where are the raids taking place? The Muslim Brotherhood said 200 Morsy supporters were killed and more than 8,000 injured. The Health Ministry said 15 protesters were killed and 203 wounded. It also said five security officials died and 29 others were injured while trying to trying to disperse the protesters. The government blocked all roads leading to the Rabaa camp and suspended rail service to Cairo. The Muslim Brotherhood claimed the suspension was an attempt was to prevent more of its members from streaming into the city. But throngs of Morsy supporters flooding a bridge leading to Rabaa al-Adawiya square on foot, video from state-run Nile TV showed. Some of the protesters clashed with with security forces. A new war zone The raids began around dawn at the two camps. Within three hours, all that remained at the Nahda camp were remnants of torn-down tents. But it was a different story at Rabaa, where protester Hassan Al Qabana said demonstrators were facing a "full-on assault." One of the main entrances to the Rabaa camp looked like a war zone. Bursts of gunfire pierced through the thick smoke and tear gas that filled the air. Some of the gunfire sounded like it came from automatic weapons. Many cried or wailed, denouncing military leaders and pointing to bullet holes. Some of the injured -- or possibly dead -- were ushered away on stretchers to a makeshift clinic. The chaos wasn't limited to Cairo. Morsy's supporters besieged various churches in Sohag, setting fire to Saint George's Church, a tour bus and a police car, Egypt's state-run EgyNews reported. Interior Ministry sources told CNN that Muslim Brotherhood supporters attacked three police stations around Egypt. Last-ditch effort In an effort to fend off security forces, protesters broke off tree branches and dragged pipes and planks to build makeshift barriers in the streets near the Rabaa camp. Those who spoke to CNN insisted they had no weapons and were demonstrating peacefully. One man who appeared bloodied told CNN his friends had been killed. He said bodies could be seen in makeshift clinics. Many Morsy supporters said they were willing to die for their cause. Mass arrests The Interior Ministry said more than 200 were arrested, caught with weapons and ammunition. Huge black plumes of smoke billowed into the sky, and at least one fire burned near the protesters. Mothers and fathers whisked away children, gas masks on their faces. The Muslim Brotherhood said police were throwing Molotov cocktails at the clinics inside the camps. Egyptian Security forces move in Clashes continue in Egypt Morsy supporters rally despite threat The Interior Ministry said security forces did not use gunfire and instead were attacked by "terrorist elements" inside the camps. "Egyptian security forces are committed to the utmost self-restraint in dealing with the protesters," the ministry said. Cities within a city For six chaotic weeks, Morsy supporters had amassed at the two camps -- refusing to budge until Morsy was reinstated. Their camps quickly morphed into cities within a city. They lived and slept in tents. Vendors offered everything from haircuts to masks. Children played in inflatable castles and splashed in kiddie pools. The government has accused the protesters of packing the sites with their children to use them as human shields. The raid Wednesday was not unexpected. Since the Muslim holy month of Ramadan ended last week, the protesters had hunkered down and waited for the crackdown that the government had long hinted at. They fortified their sites with sandbags, tires and stacks of bricks, bracing for the raid. A deadly toll The protests started soon after Egypt's military toppled Morsy in a coup last month. Hundreds have been killed and thousands have been injured in recent weeks, either in clashes between opposing protesters or in clashes between protesters and Egyptian security forces. Last month, Information Minister Durriya Sharaf el-Din said the gatherings were a threat to national security and traffic congestion. And two weeks ago, Mansour issued orders in the event of a possible "state of emergency," the EGYnews website reported. "State of emergency" is a loaded term in Egypt. Former President Hosni Mubarak ruled for 30 years under an emergency decree that barred unauthorized assembly, restricted freedom of speech and allowed police to jail people indefinitely. Morsy's fall Morsy became Egypt's first democratically elected president in 2012, a year after popular protests forced Mubarak to resign and end his three-decade rule. But a year into Morsy's term, many Egyptians wanted him out, too. They said the Western-educated Islamist, aligned with the Muslim Brotherhood movement, was not inclusive and they said he had failed to deliver on the people's aspirations for freedom and social justice. Morsy was accused of authoritarianism and trying to force the Brotherhood's Islamic agenda onto the nation's laws. He was also criticized by many Egyptians frustrated with rampant crime and a struggling economy that hadn't shown improvement since Mubarak resigned. But supporters say Morsy repeatedly offered Cabinet positions to secularists and liberals -- only to get repeatedly rejected. Since taking power from Morsy, Egypt's military has installed an interim civilian government with Mansour as interim president. But Egypt's generals, the ones who oversaw Morsy's ouster and led the country for a year after Mubarak's resignation, still wield significant power. The list of accusations against Morsy include: collaborating with the militant group Hamas to carry out hostile acts, attacking law enforcement buildings, officers and soldiers, storming prisons, vandalizing buildings and deliberately burning a prison. He hasn't been seen since his ouster. Opinion: Morsy holds key to Egypt's future CNN's Reza Sayah reported from Cairo and Saad Abedine from Atlanta; Holly Yan wrote from Atlanta. CNN's Ian Lee and Salma Abdelaziz in Cairo also contributed to this report. 2877 Comments » SHARE THIS

Billionaire US talk show host Oprah Winfrey said she was a victim of racism during a recent visit to Switzerland. Oprah visited Zurich last month to attend Tina Turner's wedding and while there she visited an up market handbag shop but a shop assistant refused to serve her, saying the bags on display were "too expensive" for her. The bag on display was a $35,000 bag. Too expensive for one of the richest women in the world? Well, The Oprah Winfrey Show is not shown in Switzerland so they don't know her there...but even at that no black person can afford a $35, 000 bag? Oprah said she left the shop calmly without arguing, but that the experience was proof that racism continues to be a problem. "There's two different ways to handle it. I could've had the whole blow-up thing... but it still exists, of course it does."she said.CNN

Tyra Banks and Bow Wow can't keep their hands, or should we say lips, off each other! The 39-year-old supermodel and the 26-year-old rapper were both on BET's 106 & Park yesterday, where they reenacted some lip-locking PDA from their pasts. "We have serious history," Banks said to the audience. "He had a little crush on me and was hitting me up on Twitter nonstop. I think he was talking about wanting to know what my lips taste like and stuff." PIC: Miley Cyrus makes out with baby-man Banks then played a video of when she let Bow Wow give her a kiss back when he visited her on The Tyra Show. In the spirit of their PDA past, Banks then proceeded to lay her legs across Bow Wow's lap before giving him a sweet smooch as the audience went crazy. After the show, Bow Wow posted a video on Instagram with the caption, "TYRA KISS MY LIPS TWICE." "Tyra touched these lips!" he screams excitedly in the clip. Banks also teased on Twitter before kissing Bow Wow on the show, "These stand 4my name or Tyra&BowWow? @106andPark 2day shud give u answer." In the twitpic, Banks shows off her T and B initial earrings, which she was wearing during the kiss. Tyra also stopped by Jimmy Fallon's late-night show this week to promote America's Next Top Model and teach Fallon how to pose seductively pose the camera. The two got superclose, hugging each other and getting awkwardly sexy for an imaginary photo shoot (LOL!). However, there was no Fallon-Banks lip-locking during the visit.

Marco Reus opened the scoring inside six minutes as a result of a goalkeeping blunder, before Arjen Robben equalised after half-time. Bayern were undone by an attacking tidal wave soon after, with Daniel Van Buyten scoring at the wrong end then Ilkay Gundogan made it 3-1 seconds later. Robben reduced the deficit but substitute Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang teed up Reus for a fourth as Dortmund rallied to victory. And it was the energetic playmaker who gave Dortmund the lead following an edgy opening to the match at Signal Iduna Park six minutes in. Robert Lewandowski, the subject of fierce interest from Bayern over the summer, saw his cross helped on by Sven Bender, whose seemingly tame header was flapped at by Tom Starke, allowing Reus to head into the net. Bayern, already behind failed to recover from that initial setback, and were lucky not to have gone 2-0 down as Lewandowski raced through past David Alaba, to slot home under Starke, before being pulled back for a debatable offside call. Nevertheless, the European champions began to settle into their rhythm and posed Dortmund a few problems. Shaqiri fired a low shot towards Weidenfeller, who was forced into a fantastic double save seconds later as the Swiss international was thwarted along with Thomas Muller with the unsuccessful follow-up. Jurgen Klopp's side continued to search for their second and were again denied by Starke. Gundogan fed through Reus on the edge of the area, squaring into the middle for Lewandowski who was beaten by the sprawling legs of the goalkeeper. For all of their perseverance, Bayern equalised early into the second half after a dazzling spell. Philipp Lahm's superb cross was met by the head of Robben, who after scoring the winning goal of the Champions League final, punished Dortmund here again with the leveller. But Dortmund were unperturbed, and swiftly regained the lead after a superb counter-attack which resulted in Daniel Van Buyten deflecting the ball into his own net. Seconds later, it was 3-1 after Gundogan's curling effort beat the defence and Starke, allowing for a third goal scored in little over a minute and a half of frenzied action. Bayern, though, continued to go for the jugular after yet another setback and were back in sight after another bit of fine work by Lahm on the wing. The Germany captain's teasing low ball picked up Robben, who deftly beat those around him and Weidenfeller to reduce the deficit. At the other end, die Roten were also profligate in front of goal, as another golden chance went begging. Shaqiri this time with a fine pass into the path of Alaba, whose teasing low ball evaded Mandzukic by inches before Thomas Muller was undone by the crossbar in a brilliant conclusion to the game. However, Dortmund - who squandered countless chances late on, finally saw themselves over the line with a blistering counter-attack. Lewandowski set off Aubameyang, who teed up Reus for a superb fourth to seal the first trophy of the German football season. |
U.S. Olympic boxer Terrell Gausha is so disgusted over the George Zimmerman verdict ... he's vowing to never sport the red, white and blue again. Gausha -- who boxed in the 2012 London Summer Games -- started wearing the American flag on his boxing trunks after his Olympic run ... but tells TMZ he's done with that now in the wake of Zimmerman's acquittal in the killing of Trayvon Martin.Terrell adds, "How can I wear my stars and stripes proudly in a country where they make a big deal out of Mike Vick fighting dogs; but not a young innocent black male's life." Gausha added, "When I represented my country in the Olympics I was proud to wear my flag. I even wore it on my head on the way to the ring. What happened this weekend was a slap in the face." Gausha has turned pro -- so he's not eligible for the U.S. team in 2016 -- but doesn't sound like he's interested ... telling us he refuses to rep a "nation with so much racism and hatred."

Le Bourget, France (CNN) -- Emirates has been voted the world's best airline by passengers at the annual Skytrax World Airline Awards. The awards -- decided by 18.2 million passengers in 160 countries around the world -- judge airlines on everything from the cleanliness of the cabin to the quality of the in-flight food and entertainment. Dubai-based Emirates took the debut prize in 2001, and retained it in 2002, before missing out on the top spot for a decade. Skytrax World Airline Awards 2013 Airline of the Year: Emirates World's Best Cabin Staff: Cathay Pacific World's Best Low-Cost Airline: Air Asia Best Economy Class: Garuda Indonesia Best Premium Economy: Air New Zealand Best Business Class: Qatar Airways Best First Class: Etihad Airways Best In-Flight Entertainment: Emirates Best Signature Dish: Malaysia Airlines' Satay Service Now they're back to make it a hat-trick -- and the company's president, Tim Clark, puts their return to award-winning form down to one thing, "exteremely hard work." "We've got 200 aircraft, 18,000 cabin crew and ground staff," he explained, admitting that with 200 aircraft and 18,000 cabin crew and ground staff the company's operations were "not easy, but you work hard at what you're doing, you deliver to people's expectations, and hopefully exceed those expectations." Emirates was also named best airline in the Middle East, and won a third award for its in-flight entertainment system. Cathay Pacific's cabin crew were crowned the world's best, while Air Asia took the prize for best low-cost airline. Japan's ANA won a new award for cabin cleanliness, as well as receiving a five-star airline rating. John Slosar, CEO of Hong Kong-based Cathay Pacific said the win was recognition for the company's "fabulous team." "We work very hard to make sure it's all about the team, not about individuals. We teach our crew not to just follow the rules, but to express themselves through their work, to offer service straight from the heart." Test your knowledge of airline liveries Presenting the awards, CNN's Richard Quest said consistency was key to the success of those crowned the best in the world. "It's all about the ability to deliver a product every time -- every flight, for every passenger in every class." The Skytrax World Airline Awards were established in 1999; they are compiled from the world's largest airline passenger satisfaction survey -- responses to questionnaires in English, Spanish, Chinese and Russian. New Airbus makes first flight.The likes of Arik Air Nigeria is not any where near,so much mismanagement and self serving rules here.

The foundations of music and sport were shaken today, when it emerged that popular Portuguese footballer Nani is the son of popular American singer, Michael Jackson. Jackson has now confirmed that Nani (aka Luís Carlos Almeida da Cunha), is the child he had formerly disowned in his 1983 hit song, Billy Jean. In a statement today, Jackson said "Billy Jean was my lover, and the kid is my son. And she wasn't like a beauty queen from a movie scene, I made that up, she was a five dollar doxy." Jackson claims he intends to rerecord the song, to reflect this new admission. "I need to put things right," he said. Nani, of Manchester United fame, has refused to comment thus far, but sources close to the greasy winger (thought to be his teammates John O'Shea and Carlos Tevez) say he is "chuffed" and "can't wait to meet his creepy new dad". Michael Jackson had a spell with OSC Nice between his Thriller and Bad albums, the latter of which is thought to be about his short time as a professional footballer. His old manager, Jean Sérafin, said "Michael was a really bad midfielder." Despite ignoring Nani since his birth, Jackson did actually pick the boy's name. "Billy Jean just called me and asked me to pick a name - I didn't want to talk to her, so I just said to call it Nanny so she would leave me alone. I like nannies," said Jackson. Jackson's other son, Blanket, is thought to be a keen sportschild, and Michael hopes that meeting his big brother might help Blanket overcome his fear of reality. "I can't wait for Nani to meet Blanket - maybe playing with Nani will give him the confidence to take of his veil the next time he plays soccer." Jackson is expected to attend United's game against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium next weekend. It is understood that each time Nani does a somersault Earth Song will be played over the PA system.

GAME, SET AND MATCH- Williams 6-4 6-4 Sharapova Not a hint of nerves. A beautifully controlled, crouching topspin backhand gives Williams 40-15 and two Championship points. She closes out appropriately with a searing ace before dropping to her knees in ecstasy. |
Rafael Nadal reached his eighth French Open final with a marathon 6-4 3-6 6-1 6-7 (3-7) 9-7 win over Novak Djokovic. World number one Djokovic, looking to become only the second man to beat Nadal at Roland Garros, was broken in game seven as Nadal won the first set. The Serb levelled the match, but won only 12 points in losing the third set. Third seed Nadal lost a tie-break after serving for the match at 6-5 in the fourth, but came back from a break down to clinch a dramatic decider.

It was a night for fond farewells. As Deportivo La Coruna, Mallorca and Zaragoza said goodbye to Spain's Primera Division after relegation, Celta Vigo secured survival and Real Sociedad rejoiced by claiming Champions League qualification. Overall, however, La Liga lost some sparkle as a number of its principal protagonists march off into the sunset on Sunday. Saturday's action began at Real Madrid as Jose Mourinho made his last appearance at the Santiago Bernabeu, with a mixed reaction from the home support but plenty of fans on his side, too. "Mourinho, thank you for fighting through hell and high water," one banner read. And after the game, some 10,000 fans stayed behind to pay homage to their much-maligned leader. He may have divided the dressing room and even the club's support, but the Portuguese has brought much to La Liga over these last three seasons. There was no last press conference from Mourinho, but Gonzalo Higuain did appear before the media to tell them he would be leaving Madrid as well this summer. "I want to go somewhere people show me they love me," the Argentine explained. Much like Mourinho, then. Earlier, Higuain hit his 121st strike in Madrid colours to draw level with another club legend, Juanito. And after six years of stellar service for the Spanish side, he has earned the admiration and respect of most Madrid fans. |

As we mark another democracy day,are we in the right path as government is a process not an event,in my opinion Nigeria's biggest problem is illiteracy and seconded by corruption,if our educated elites whose opinion in must cases are illiterate can have a rethink then we may be going back to track,in essence who becomes the next president of Nigeria should not be in contest but a leader irrespective of his ethnicity that can move Nigeria forward,then every other challenges will fall in place.eg corruption.your take please |
