Ousted president Mohamed Morsi's last prime minister today proposed a plan to ease tensions in Egypt, as the Islamist leader's loyalists braced for a showdown with the military.
Hisham Qandil, who has kept a low profile since Morsi's overthrow on July 3, proposed in a video posted on YouTube the release of prisoners since the coup and allowing a delegation to visit Morsi, detained by the army.
