Anti-Coup Alliance Statement Condemns Israeli Drone Operation Inside Egyptian Borders

Media sources have reported an Israeli terrorist operation that targeted Egyptians in Sinai with full coordination between the coup commanders and the Israeli army.

The Anti-Coup, Pro-Legitimacy National Alliance strongly condemns this traitorous operation, and denounces Israeli aircraft carrying out terrorist attacks inside the Egyptian border, which resulted in the deaths of a number of Egyptians.

The Alliance stresses that this shameful incident constitutes a serious development that threatens Egyptian national security.

The Alliance reaffirms its renunciation and rejection of the coup commanders’ schemes, which aim to preoccupy the Egyptian army with politics, with all the consequent serious negative effects on the efficiency of the army as it is distracted from its core mission to protect the borders of Egypt from any foreign aggression.

The Alliance affirms its commitment to maintaining the strong army of Egypt, and believes that the officers and soldiers of the Egyptian army are patriots who will not let the coup commanders change their military doctrine to make them raise their weapons into the faces of their compatriots rather than their homeland’s enemies.
