[h=3]No compromise for Egypt's President Morsi[/h]
CBS News correspondent Holly Williams says Egyptian television reported fresh clashes Friday between supporters and opponents of President Mohammed Morsi in front of a mosque in Alexandria, but there were no reports of injuries or serious violence.
Morsi responded to bloody clashes outside his palace with a fiery speech denouncing his opponents, deepening the crisis. The opposition turned down his appeal for talks, saying the president had not fulfilled their conditions for beginning negotiations.
