The 2013 Egyptian #coup d'etat or the #Counterrevolution is an event that took place on 3 July 2013. Egyptian army chief General #AbdelFattahElSisi led a coalition to remove the democratically elected #President of Egypt #MohamedMorsi from power and suspended the #EgyptianConstitutionOf2012. The move came after the military's ultimatum for the government to "resolve its differences" with protesters during #widespreadNationalProtests. The military arrested Morsi and #MuslimBrotherhood leaders.
