Muslim Brotherhood declared a terrorist organisation in Egypt

Hossam Eissa, the Minister of Higher Education in Egypt, read out country's Cabinet statement after a long meeting Wednesday saying the country's military-backed interim government has declared the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist group, a dramatic escalation that gives authorities more power in cracking down on members of the group.
"The Cabinet has declared the Muslim Brotherhood group and its organization as a terrorist organization," he said.
Eissa added that the implications of the declaration punish those who belong to the group, finance it and promote the group's activities.
