Egypt on Saturday ordered the Turkish ambassador in Cairo to leave the country and downgraded the two countries' diplomatic ties to the level of charge d'affaires for repeated comments from Ankara supporting deposed Islamist president Mohammed Morsi, dpa reported. Hours later, Turkey reciprocated by declaring the Egyptian ambassador - who is already in Cairo - persona non grata, and lowering links with Egypt to the level of charge d'affaires, according to media reports. -- SPA 19:07 LOCAL TIME 16:07 GMT تغريد
