The Muslim Brotherhood headquarters in Moqattam was attacked Monday morning and set on fire.
Clashes ensued between protesters and the Brotherhood youths, leaving 8 dead and 70 injured.
The Brotherhood headquarters was looted in a scene reminiscent of the attack on the National Democratic Party’s headquarters by protesters that took place on 28 January 2011, prompting sarcastic tweets by the dissolved National Democratic Party.
Police have begun investigations and have cordoned the Brotherhood headquarters with soldiers.
The attacks happened after several million-man marches spread throughout the country on Sunday.
