After ousting President Morsi, Egypt’s army has said that they will guarantee the right to peaceful protest ahead of large-scale planned demonstrations by the Muslim Brotherhood later today.
A video showing what is being described as the arrest of former Egyptian president Mohamed Morsi is making the rounds online. The same video was posted on YouTube on May 21, 2013 under the title “The moment President Mohamed Morsi and his son were arrested.”
Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi has been ousted from power by the Egyptian army after a week of huge protests across the country with the top judge of Egypt’s Constitutional Court, Adli Mansour sworn in as interim president before elections can be held.
The situation is tense in Egypt after a night of deadly clashes and the deadline for the army’s ultimatum for President Morsi looms.
The crisis in Egypt has inched further into chaos after president Morsi warned of confusion over its threat to intervene if the Egyptian government did not heed “the will of the people”
