Egyptian Official: It's Natural that Israel Is Concerned about Egypt
(Reuters-Jerusalem Post) Yasser Okbi - Mustafa Hijazi, an adviser to interim Egyptian President Adly Mansour, told Russia al-Youm, an Arabic-language Russian media outlet, on Monday that "Israel is naturally following the events, as a regional neighbor, and wants to be assured, because what's happening right now in Egypt is important to all in the region." He referred to the Muslim Brotherhood as "an extremist enemy of the Egyptian people" that is engaging in terrorist activity in order to get its way, and vowed that "victory" over the Brotherhood would come soon.
