A dissident Muslim Brotherhood faction intends to take to the streets in civilian disobedience in a move to press for political change, sources said.
The unnamed front says it is actively lobbying Brotherhood members, political powers, and citizens. The front called upon the group’s Guidance Bureau and parliamentary candidates to join its activities.
A senior figure in the faction, Hyatham Khalil, said the group seeks to promote civilian disobedience as an established social pattern.
The group also strives to enlighten Egyptians on their rights, educate them about peaceful opposition, and extricate them from their current state of indifference and fear.
Khalil emphasized civilian disobedience was used by Gandhi for liberating India and by South African leaders in confronting apartheid.
