Egypt's military authorities have dissolved the country's notorious internal security agency, which has been accused of human rights abuses.
The State Security Investigation Service (SSIS) will be replaced with a new "National Security Force".
The new agency would be tasked with "protecting the internal front and combating terror", state TV reported.
The actions of the SSIS helped ignite the popular uprising that overthrew President Hosni Mubarak last month. BBC News
