June Egyptian protests
Demonstrations against President Mohamed Morsi
The 30 June protests occurred in Egypt on 30 June , marking the one-year anniversary of Mohamed Morsi's inauguration as president.[21] The events ended with the Egyptian coup d'état after mass protests across Egypt demanding the immediate resignation of the president.[22] The rallies were partly a response to Tamarod, an ostensibly[23]grassroots movement that launched a petition in April , calling for Morsi and his government to step down. Tamarod claimed to have collected more than 22 million signatures for their petition by June 30,[24][25][26] although this figure was not verified by independent sources.[27] A counter-campaign in support of Morsi's presidency, named Tagarod (meaning impartiality), claimed to have collected 26 million signatures by the same date,[28] but this figure was also unverified and not mentioned in media nearly as much as Tamarod's, with no reliable sources repeating it.[29] The movements in opposition to Morsi culminated in the June 30 protests that occurred across the country.

– Egyptian protests
Period of unrest around the presidential elections and coup
The – Egyptian protests (sometimes called the Hirak Uprising) were part of the crisis in Egypt including the June protests, the July coup d'état, and part of the post-coup unrest. They saw varying opposition against three contiguous heads of state; namely, the Supreme Council of the Armed Forces (SCAF), Muslim Brotherhood, and the de facto ruling Egyptian Armed Forces.
Beginning with the anniversary of the Egyptian revolution, small-scale protests took place in January demanding the military to step away from power. Those protests saw at least 7 protesters killed. Increasing violence, however, began in February with the massacre of Port Said, where 74 people (72 of which being Al-Ahly fans) were killed and hundred were injured bygd purported fans who were armed with knives, batons and swords, while the sparse säkerhet present stood idly.
