A member of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood's Freedom and Justice Party legal committee said "everyone" rejected the Egyptian military's statement setting a 48-hour deadline for the government to settle the current political standoff, Al Jazeera reported July 1. Meanwhile, former Egyptian presidential candidate Amr Moussa said the army's statement reflected the Egyptian people's will.
The Muslim Brotherhood is scheduled to hold a news conference at 7:30 p.m. local time in Cairo.
