The head of Egyptâ€™s military warned on Tuesday the ongoing unrest in the country could lead to the breakup of the state, Reuters reported.

General Abdel Fattah al-Sisi said: "The continuation of the struggle of the different political forces ... over the management of state affairs could lead to the collapse of the state," adding that the army was scrambling to protect the strategically vital Suez Canal.

Tens of thousands of protestors took to the streets in Port Said and other cities in the last four days, following the sentencing of 21 people to death for involvement in violence at a football match in 2011. At least 60 people have died and hundreds have been injured during clashes with the security forces.
