Serving as the sixth and current president of Egypt since 2014
After the 2011 Egyptian revolution and 2012 election of Mohamed Morsi to the Egyptian presidency, the first democratic election in the history of the country, he was appointed Minister of Defense and Commander-in-Chief of the Egyptian Armed Forces on 12 August 2012, replacing the Hosni Mubarak-era Hussein Tantawi
Following large scale protests against Morsi's presidency, Sisi led the 2013 Egyptian coup d'état, overthrowing Morsi on 3 July 2013. Demonstrations and sit-ins organized by supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood and Egyptian democracy followed
Under his command, two camps of protesters were violently dispersed in Cairo: one at al-Nahda Square and a larger one at Rabaa al-Adawiya Square, the Rabaa massacre, leading to international criticism
The dispersal of pro-Morsi sit-ins by the police and military forces resulted in the killing of about 3,000 civilians and the arrests of almost 19,000
Human Rights Watch describes the massacres as crimes against humanity
