The Dhaka Times Desk Pro-Morsi protests continue in Egypt. In the face of massive protests, the army opened fire to bring it under control. Media reported that 79 Morsi supporters have been killed so far.
In Cairo, the army opened fire again on the camp of Morsi supporters. At least 51 people were killed in the attack on Monday morning, according to international media. In all, 79 Morsi supporters have been killed so far.
According to international media reports, a spokesman for the once-banned Brotherhood claimed to the media that Morsi supporters were shot indiscriminately during protests outside where President Morsi is being held. After Morsi's ouster in a military coup, the death toll has exceeded 79.
Murad Ali, a spokesman for the Brotherhood's political wing, the Freedom and Justice Party, said shots were fired at a camp of Morsi supporters outside the headquarters of the Republican Guard on Monday morning.
On the other hand, the army claimed, "A group of terrorists tried to attack the building of the Ministry of Defense. An army officer was killed and 40 others were injured during this."
It should be noted that the Muslim Brotherhood and Morsi supporters are protesting against the military coup and demanding the reinstatement of Morsi in Egypt, including the capital Cairo. On the other hand, rejecting such demands of the Muslim Brotherhood, the army has said that Morsi's Brotherhood will be able to participate in the next election.
Meanwhile, various countries of the world, including the United Nations, are seriously monitoring the current situation in Egypt. World leaders believe that a solution must be found peacefully - not violently. The army's firing has also been criticized by various countries around the world.
