In the iconic Tahrir Square, the ongoing marches of anti-Morsi protesters showed up to express rejection of the upcoming constitutional referendum.

Also, Tahrir protesters were reportedly terrified by three masked gunmen shooting in the air, injuring some protesters who accused pro-Morsi Islamists of doing so. However, Muslim Brotherhood spokesman Mahmoud Ghuzlan denied and said that "all Islamists know the prohibition of bloodshed and they cannot assault peaceful protesters."

Meanwhile, a number of Islamists led by Salafist Hazem Salah Abou Ismail, a former presidential candidate, continue their sit- in outside the Media Production City at the outskirts of Cairo in support of Morsi against "the corrupted media."
