Mass sexual assault in Egypt

Mass sexual assault is a widespread issue in Egypt and has been the subject of significant international attention since 2005, when Egyptian security forces and their agents were accused of using it as a weapon against female protesters during a political demonstration at Tahrir Square in Cairo on 25 May of that year. It has since become increasingly prevalent, and by 2012, it had become commonplace for crowds of young men to sexually assault or rape women during festivals and political protests throughout the country.
