One person was reported dead in the city.
Meanwhile, thousands of people took to the streets across Egypt in response to calls made by the Muslim Brotherhood for nationwide protests on the “Friday of Martyrs.”
The protests were held against the backdrop of deployment of large numbers of security forces across the country.
The government of army-picked interim President Adly Mansour has launched a fierce crackdown on Morsi supporters and arrested more than 2,000 Muslim Brotherhood members, including the party’s leader, Mohamed Badie, who was detained earlier this week.
The demonstrations come as ex-dictator Hosni Mubarak is now under house arrest at a military hospital following his release from jail on Thursday, whereas Morsi, the country’s first democratically president who was removed from office by the army on July 3, remains under arrest.
Nearly 1,000 people were killed in a week of violence between Morsi fans and security forces after police dispersed their protest camps in a deadly operation on August 14.
The massacre sparked international condemnation and prompted world bodies to call for an independent investigation into the violence.
