He's tried to defuse the crisis by promising that his new powers would be limited, but protesters are demanding he withdraw the decree completely. Jon Leyne reports.
Through the day protesters have been streaming flooding into Tahrir Square. One of the first group was lawyers, some still in their official robes. They are furious about President Mursi's declaration that he is not subject to the courts. The Nobel peace prize winner Mohammed ElBaradei and other liberals led a huge marching from a mainly Christian area of Cario. By early evening Tehrir Square was packed full of a noisy crowd. Other demonstrations are taking place in many other Egyptian cities. Many of the protesters are repeating the same chants they used against Husni Mubarac last year, this time calling on President Mursi and his Islamist movement the Muslim Brotherhood to go.

The American ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice has admitted she gave incorrect information to the public following the attack on the US consulate in Lybia on September 11, in which the ambassador and three other people were killed. Jane O'Brien has this report from Washington.
The September attack on the US consulate in Beghazi triggered a major political row over who knew what and when. Republicans accused the Obama administration of deliberately misleading the public after Susan Rice, the ambassador to the UN, said the assault was spontaneous rather than a pre-planned terrorist attack. Later intelligence reports contradicted that assessment. Mrs Rice now agrees her initial statement was incorrect but denies the attempting to mislead the American people.
