Egypt's military-backed government has ordered police to end sit-ins by supporters of ousted Islamist President Mohammed Morsi in the capital Cairo.
"The cabinet has decided to take all measures necessary to confront these risks and put an end to them," an official said in a televised statement.
The statement termed the continued rallies "a national security threat".
Muslim Brotherhood supporters have staged sit-ins for several weeks since President Morsi was removed on 3 July.
They have defied previous threats of removal from their sit-in protests, despite deadly clashes with security forces.
"The continuation of the dangerous situation in Rabaa al-Adawiya and Nahda squares, and consequent terrorism and road blockages are no longer acceptable given the threat to national security," the statement said.
