The Muslim Brotherhood said presidential candidate Abdel Fattah el Sisi is afraid to campaign publicly due to the potential for backlash from the public. Security officials denied that a wall was being built around el Arish in North Sinai; Ansar Jerusalem has threatened to attack anyone involved in the purported project. The Interior Minister said attacks are expected to take place during the forthcoming presidential campaign. At least four people were killed in clashes between security forces and Muslim Brotherhood supporters.
