In Cairo, Egypt, hundreds of people have died in the recent clashes following the ousting of President Mohamed Morsi, from the Muslim Brotherhood, by the army on 3rd of July 2013. Supporters of Mohamed Morsi have condemned the move as a "military coup", while the anti-Morsi activists simply follow the large popular rallies of recent months.

Amid demonstrations in the district of Ramsis and around Rabaa square, clashes broke out among police, the anti-Morsi activists and supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood. Seven people were killed, and more than 261 were injured.

The consequences might not be as serious as they were prior to Morsi being ousted, yet the events of the 15th and 16th of July are the first violent confrontations involving pro-Morsi supporters for weeks.
