The coup militias detained a number of revolutionaries today in the city of Bahri, a practice that is not uncommon. These forces also stormed a number of neighborhoods in an attempt to harass and spread terror among the residents.

Over the past period, these militias have conducted arrests in violation of and in total disregard for the law. We warn these forces not to re-enter the neighborhoods again, and our response on the ground will be immediate and decisive. Additionally, we warn them not to arrest any revolutionary inside or outside of the neighborhoods.

The use of tactics such as terrorism, intimidation, and extrajudicial arrests will only serve to strengthen our resolve and belief in the cause.
