This was the last protest of the Muslim Brotherhood in Cairo before the massacre at Rabaa.
The next day, the army shot more than 800 people and declared a state of emergency. The streets have been quite empty for days after that. And there was a terrible silence. Tanks, guns, checkpoints everywhere. Ever since, the army is controlling everything, including the mass media. A lot of journalists have been arrested and the army is still preventing journalists do their work.
