Exactly one year ago, on July 3, 2013, Egypt's military leaders removed Mohamed Morsi, the country's first democratically elected president, from office.
Morsi's fall from power came after days of massive protests in which hundreds of thousands of Egyptians demanded the leader's ouster.
While supporters of Morsi and the Muslim Brotherhood denounced his removal as a military coup, many protesters initially celebrated in the streets and hailed the military for its intervention.
The photos below will transport you back to those tense days.
