Supporters of ousted President Mohamed Mursi will hold a demonstration by the United Nations headquarters under the slogan “the coup does not represent Egypt” on Tuesday. 

The National Alliance to Support Legitimacy, that groups Mursi's supporters, said on its official Facebook page on Sunday that the demonstration is to express "the Egyptian people’s rejection of the coup and its institutions and committees."

The protest comes in response to Egypt’s interim President Adli Mansour asking Foreign Minister Nabil Fahmy to head a delegation at the 68’s general assembly of the UN this month.  

Mursi’s supporters have been holding demonstrations since the Islamist president's ouster.
