In Egypt, at least 17 people were killed on Sunday in Egypt’s bloodiest protests since Abdel Fattah el-Sisi came to power as security forces fired at protesters marking the anniversary of the 2011 uprising that toppled dictator Hosni Mubarak. Riot police backed by soldiers in armored vehicles sealed off roads, including those leading to Cairo’s Tahrir Square. Riot police with rifles and plain-clothed men with pistols were seen chasing protesters through the streets of Cairo. The heaviest death toll was in the Cairo suburb of Matariya, a Muslim Brotherhood stronghold, where eight people, including one policeman, were killed. On Saturday, Shaimaa al-Sabbagh, a leading member of the Socialist Popular Alliance Party, was shot dead at a protest near Tahrir Square. Video and photos of the shooting went viral across Egypt.
