The Third Square (Arabic: الميدان الثالث) is an Egyptian political movement created by liberal leftist and moderate Islamist activists who reject both Muslim Brotherhood and military rule following the 2013 Egyptian coup d’état.The movement first appeared when the Egyptian defence minister General Abdul Fattah al-Sisi called for mass demonstrations on 26 July 2013 to grant his forces a mandate to crack down on terrorism which was seen as contradicting the military’s pledges to hand over power to civilians after removing Morsi and as an indication for an imminent crackdown against Islamists.
