Revelation 6:3-4 NCV When the Lamb opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature say, "Come!" Then another horse came out, a red one. Its rider was given power to take away peace (prosperity, rest) from the earth and to make people kill each other (butcher, slaughter, to maim violently, in streets), and he was given a big sword (assassins sword, terrorist, loud, mighty, sore afraid).
The Egyptian government moved to clear pro-Morsi protest camps on Wednesday resulting in multiple deaths and injuries.
Death tolls vary but most official sources say at least 40 to 50 people have been killed in the clearing of the camps. However, the Muslim Brotherhood claims hundreds are dead across the country as camps nationwide are cleared. Security officials used tear gas and have been using armored vehicles including armored bulldozers to remove the protesters from the camps.
A British journalist has been reported among the dead as shooting began between security forces and the activists. Sky News cameraman Mick Deane, 61, was shot and killed as forces moved into the camps.
The Egyptian health ministry said they regret “any shedding of Egyptian blood” but that the government had termed the camps a “threat to national security.”
Multiple sources reported to the BBC that Muslim Brotherhood supporters are causing unrest in many cities outside of the capital including storming the local council building in Alexandria.
