JEDDAH — Hundreds of thousands of Egyptians residing in Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries have been enrolling in the Tamarod campaign against President Mohamed Morsi. The campaign coordinators have called for massive protests against Morsi on June 30.



Mohammed Mughazi, an Egyptian and a volunteer for Tamarod campaign in the Kingdom, said efforts are continuing to gather signatures of hundreds of Egyptians ahead of the June 30 protest.



Around 15 million people, he said, have joined the campaign. Mohamed Mughazi, a volunteer and Tamarod coordinator in Saudi Arabia, said that many Egyptians in Saudi Arabia wish to do anything to show their support for Tamarod the campaign.



He said there won’t be any protests here because “we respect the rules of Saudi Arabia. We will somehow find a way to show our moral support from Tamarod like wearing same color T-shirts on June 30.



Tamarod campaign started in Egypt with only nine persons, he said. “And now after two months Tamarod volunteers in Egypt have touched the 5,000-mark,” he said.
