Aisha Ali, an 18-year-old veiled protester, told Xinhua that she did not belong to the Muslim Brotherhood or Salafists. "The opponents protest against everything the president does, and they want us to return to the zero point," she complained.

At the same day, opponents marched towards the presidential palace in Cairo, raising national flags and signs reading "No for the constitution," "No for Morsi" and "No for the Brotherhood rule. "

Although most roads and streets to the palace were blocked by cement walls or barbed wires, thousands of anti-Morsi protesters gathered outside the palace, posing challenge to presidential guards and security staff.
