Adly Mansour
On 13 August, Egyptian interim President Adly Mansour appointed 18 new provincial governors, many of them former military officers, removing all Muslim Brotherhood members who had been in office, triggering a wave of criticism from groups and activists who decried the appointments of mainly former security officials to the posts. According to "The Economist" a number of those newly appointed governors "had glaring records of hostility to the 2011 revolution."
