Beblawi was the chief architect of the Rab3a massacre.
On 14 August 2013 Egyptian security forces raided two camps of protesters inCairo: one at al-Nahda Square and a larger one at Rabaa al-Adawiya Square. The two sites had been occupied by supporters of ousted President Mohamed Morsi, who was removed from office by the military after mass street protestsagainst him. The camps were raided after initiatives to end the six week sit-insfailed and as a result of the raids the camps were cleared out within hours.[7]The raids were described by Human Rights Watch as "one of the world’s largest killings of demonstrators in a single day in recent history”.[8] According to Human Rights Watch, a minimum of 817 people and more likely at least 1,000 were killed in Rabaa Square on August 14.[9] According to the Egyptian Health Ministry, 638 people were killed on 14 August, of which 595 were civilians and 43 police officers, with at least 3,994 injured. The Muslim Brotherhood and National Coalition for Supporting Legitimacy (NCSL) claimed the number of deaths from the Rabaa al-Adawiya Mosque sit-in alone was about 2,600. Violent retaliation followed in several cities across the country. The interim government declared a month-long state of emergency in response and curfews were instituted in many areas. The total casualty count made 14 August the deadliest day since the 2011 Egyptian revolution which toppled Morsi's predecessor Hosni Mubarak. The clashes were widely denounced by several world leaders.
