Nine people were killed during a series of protests lead by the Muslim Brotherhood. Local officials say that most of the dead were killed at a sit-in near Cairo University.

The pro-Morsi demonstrators were supporting claims by Morsi’s family that he had been abducted by the military. Morsi has been held at an undisclosed location since being removed as President on July 3.

Over 100 people have been killed since the Muslim Brotherhood began protests.

Egyptian state TV reported that seven pro-Morsi protesters had been arrested with illegal weapons.

The Muslim Brotherhood has refused to acknowledge the interim government and will not have any “dialogue” until their control over the country is restored.
