Supporters of former president Mohammed Morsi called on Egyptians to take to the streets of Cairo and protest outside the headquarters of the army and police. Security personnel fired tear gas at Morsi supporters who reportedly blocked traffic in Cairo. Egyptian police plan to block access rather than disperse a Muslim Brotherhood sit-in in Cairo. Leaflets allegedly tied to an Islamist movement threatened attacks against public facilities and churches if security forces broke up pro-Morsi protests.
