Tunisia: Ennahdha Statement on early-morning putschist massacres against protesters in Egypt

Tunis, 8 July 2013

Early this morning, Monday 8 July 2013, putschist forces committed a massacre against peaceful protesters supporting the legitimate President Mohamed Morsy as they engaged in their dawn prayers. Victims of the massacre exceed 50 martyrs and hundreds of injuries.

Ennahdha Party:

– Prays for the souls of martyrs who sacrificed their lives in defence of the legitimacy expressing the will of Egyptians.

– Condemns this heinous crime committed by Egyptian security services against unarmed civilians.

– Stresses that the determination of putschists to abrogate the democratic legitimacy embodied in President Mohamed Morsy will only drive putschists to further isolation and confrontation with the entire Egyptian people.

– Calls on all Egyptian national forces to reject the coup and support the pro-democratic legitimacy front and to opt for the method of dialogue and prevention of bloodshed.

– Calls on all freedom-loving people around the world to stand in solidarity with the Egyptian people in its defence of legitimacy and democracy.
