Egypt's new visa rules for Syrians.
Egypt's new visa rules for Syrians imposed after the 
army's removal of President Mohamed Morsi are only a temporary security 
measure and will not erode Egyptian support for the Syrian revolution, 
state media said on Monday.
Last week, Egypt introduced visa 
requirements for Syrians after local media and some officials accused 
Syrian Islamists of joining deadly clashes between Morsi's supporters 
and the military that ousted him earlier this month.
Egypt has 
since turned back several flights from Syria carrying hundreds of 
passengers and deported Syrians who arrived via other countries at Cairo
 airport, according to the UN refugee agency UNHCR.
Hundreds of 
thousands of Syrians have fled the conflict pitting President Bashar 
al-Assad's armed forces against insurgents trying to overthrow him. The 
bloodshed, which began in March 2011, has killed an estimated 100,000 
people and driven 1.7 millions abroad.
