Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu condemned the Cairo shooting in which at least 42 people died Monday, describing the incident as a "massacre."
Islamist protesters angered by President Mohamed Morsy's overthrow said the killings occurred when they were fired on outside Republican Guard headquarters by the Egyptian army. The military meanwhile blamed the bloodshed on a "terrorist group" that reportedly tried to storm the facility, where some believe Morsy is currently being held.
