CAIRO: The Facebook page of Egypt's April 6 Youth Movement is reportedly being attacked by online Muslim Brotherhood activists, the group's media officer reported. Mohamed Affifi said that Brotherhood activists were spamming and reporting the site, which has caused the page to be down. He said that the movement was doing all they could to bring the page back online. It comes as at least three people have been killed in the ongoing violence that erupted after Brotherhood supporters attacked a peaceful sit-in against President Mohamed Morsi near the presidential palace on Wednesday afternoon. Two of those murdered protesters are Karam Gerges and Mohamed Essam, both members of the Revolutionary Socialists. Activists shared photos of the two dead men with blood covering their faces and bodies. Al-Tayar Al-Shaabi, the popular current revolutionary movement confirmed the protesters death. The armed Brotherhood supporters were reported to have used knives, broken glass, Molotov cocktails, rubber bullets and live ammunition to disperse the opposition sit-in that followed a massive protest outside the presidential palace late on Tuesday, calling for Morsi to step down. Over 200 people have been injured as Muslim Brotherhood supporters continue to attack Egyptian activists who had been protesting against President Morsi.
