Starting on Wednesday, the campaign to clear the sit-ins began, drawing global criticism for excessive force.

An overwhelming majority of those killed were supporters of ousted Brotherhood President Mohamed Morsi, and had been staging a sit-in for his reinstatement at Rabaa for nearly a month and a half.
