EGYPT'S army chief Abdel Fattah al-Sisi has ousted president Mohamed Morsi and declared the head of the Supreme Constitutional Court caretaker leader.
Mr Sisi, the defence minister in Mr Morsi's government, also announced a freezing of the Islamist-drafted constitution and early presidential elections.
He said a "strong and capable" government would be formed and would have "full capacities".
The army chief said a panel would be formed to look into amendments to the constitution and a law would be drafted to regulate parliamentary elections.
After the announcement, delivered by Mr Sisi in a televised address, Mr Morsi denounced the move as an "illegal" and urged Egyptians to "peacefully resist the coup as he himself will do", a senior aide told AFP.
Opposition leader Mohamed ElBaradei said the roadmap announced by Mr Sisi "meets the the people's demands for early presidential elections".
The army's dramatic move comes after millions of Egyptians took to the streets to call for his ouster, accusing him of betraying the 2011 revolution that brought him to power.

Some nations are smart enough to correct a disastrous mistake made by a rigged election after a year of misrule. Other nations in the same situation are stupid and lazy.
This.
Obama would sh!t his pants if we surrounded the White House like these people do.
It only takes a spark to create a forest fire.
I will not judge the particulars of the Egyptian people rising up.They still may never know or want any form of Jeffersonian democracy.I will say that I am extremely proud of those people to stare the tyrants and thugs in the eye and say stick it,we don’t want you(or Obama)I wish hopelessly that America will show such gumption and patriotic duty; sweeping the tyranny of Obama and his evil and corrupt regime in the dust bin of failure.
“There was a Pro-Morsi rally.... but it was pathetically small: “
and passionless and uninspiring

Mohamed, we hardly knew ye...
Noted: to Mohammedans and their dhimmis, a popular revolution that can be manipulated to put Caliphate supporters in power is a popular revolution, but a popular revolution that removes Caliphate supporters is a coup d’etat.
Well, Twitter is full of thugs claiming they are going to riot and loot if Zimmerman is acquitted. Wonder what will happen when they are surprised by shopkeepers who are prepared and have had enough?
Were you there for the taxpayer march on Washington on September 12, 2010? There were plenty of concerned Americans from all over the country there, hundreds of thousands, who all had jobs and spent their own money to get there.
There are plenty of concerned people, we aren't all keyboard warriors playing with our cell phones.
So Obama backs the ouster of the guy who kept Egypt stable for 30 some years in favor of his Muslim brotherhood kin. Gives them money, arms, and support (I mean the US taxpayers did), and now a year later he is gone?
Everything Hussein touches turns to shiite, and years after his treasonous ass is living in his 35 million dollar Hawaii mansion and retired, we will still be dealing with the wreckage of his usurpation.
At least Carter backed a violent, deranged anti-American thug who had some staying power, and we got to fight him and his kind to this day.
Crap, you know you suck when your anti-American terrorist thug you back to try to destroy your country only lasts a year. He’s making Carter look competent, and that ain’t easy to do, even if his compentency is in destroying his own country.
Eh. I meant 9/12/2009...but you get the point.
On call nurses are going to make some BANK!
How did they “oust” him? Did they go in and pick him up and throw him out on the curb?
I wanna learn how to “oust” for later ...here in America.
I guess you can call to congratulate him at any time, Mr. President. I'd recommend getting your embassy staff out of Cairo first before you lose another ambassador through incompetence.
