A pro-Morsi protest will begin in Egypt today. One million people will take part in it, Anadolu reported on Thursday.

According to the report, Morsi's supporters decided to protest today in response to Egyptian Defense MinisterAbdel Fattah al-Sisi's call on the people to go to pro army rallies and demand that the military be authorized to fight terrorism.

The "Muslim Brotherhood" movement considers this call a "declaration of civil war".

Clashes between supporters and opponents of President Mohamed Morsi have been ongoing in Egypt after the Egyptian military suspended the constitution and ousted Morsi on July 3.

Egyptian Islamists do not accept these decisions and demand the return of power to the legally elected president.

On July 10, Egypt's Prosecutor General's Office ordered the arrest of leaders of the Muslim Brotherhood movement. Morsi's exact location has not been reported. It is only known that he is being held by the military in an Interior Ministry building.
