Australians warned about travel to Egypt Foreign Minister Bob Carr has warned Australians to keep clear of civil unrest in Egypt as millions flooded the streets overnight demanding Islamist President Mohamed Morsi step down. Speaking on the sidelines of the ASEAN Foreign Ministers' Meeting in Brunei on Monday, Senator Carr said Australia would not be raising its travel alert, but that the situation could change in the days ahead. "We're aware of large protests overnight with sporadic outbreaks if violence," Senator Carr told AAP. We note that several individuals have died, the latest report is five, and we understand shots were fired at the office of the Muslim Brotherhood. Our embassy is monitoring the situation very closely. We will work with partner countries - the US, New Zealand, the UK and Canada - to keep a close watch on security. Senator Carr is likely to discuss the unfolding situation with US Secretary of State John Kerry on the sidelines of the ASEAN summit later on Monday. Millions of people hit the streets in Cairo and in other areas around Egypt overnight in protest over the Morsi government on the anniversary of his first year in power and in what were the biggest demonstrations since the 2011 revolt. "There's a high continuing risk of civil unrest and possible violence," Senator Carr said. We're not aware of any risk that Australians would be targeted, but anyone could be caught up in violent exchanges.
