Egypt: Islamists urge fresh protests against coup, Zionists
Supporters of deposed Islamist president Mohamed Morsi called for more mass demonstrations Tuesday. The Anti-Coup Alliance called for a "million-man demonstration" as the judiciary said on Monday it was extending his detention for a further 15 days pending an investigation into his collaboration with Palestinian group Hamas.
Using the slogan "Together against the coup d'etat and the Zionists" for their rally, Morsi's backers are trying to strike a nationalist chord after an air raid in the Sinai on radical Islamist militants overnight Sunday, which the jihadists have blamed on Israel. (AFP)
