New arrest of 17 MB members
Egyptian security forces have arrested today,Monday evening, 17 MB members during a gathering in the Zoer village, Shebin El-Kom Centre.
Security forces surrounded the place, arrested everyone there and raided their houses in a horrific way that intimidated the relatives of the detainees.
Until the time of writing this report, the names of detainees are still unknown.
This new campaign of security attacks and arrests took place right after the huge events, by MB , supporting Gaza Strip during the recent Israeli aggression.
These arrests included hundreds of MB members in most of the provinces in Egypt.
MB strongly condemns this form of aggression by security forces against members of MB group, as this is a gross violation of human rights and freedoms and it also violates freedom to assembly.
