Protests occurred in Egypt on 30 June 2013, marking the one-year anniversary of Mohamed Morsi's presidency. The events ended with the 2013 Egyptian coup d'état after mass protests demanding the immediate resignation of the president. The rallies were partly a response to Tamarod, an ostensibly grassroots movement that launched a petition in April 2013, calling for Morsi and his government to step down. Tamarod claimed to have collected more than 22 million signatures by 30 June, although this figure was not verified by independent sources. A counter-campaign in support of Morsi's presidency, named Tagarod ("Impartiality"), claimed to have collected 26 million signatures by the same date, but this figure was also unverified.
