Egypt’s Constituent Assembly has approved the draft of a new constitution that would expand certain rights while also entrenching military rule. The proposed changes guarantee freedom of religion and women’s rights while also banning religious-based parties, such as the Muslim Brotherhood, and making it more difficult to remove Egyptian military leader General Abdel Fattah el-Sisi. On Sunday, police fired tear gas at hundreds of protesters rallying in Tahrir Square in support of ousted President Mohamed Morsi. The Egyptian government has announced, meanwhile, it’s extending the imprisonment of prominent blogger Alaa Abd El Fattah for another 15 days.
