Egyptian lawyers Nour Farahat and Khaled el-Masry said Wednesday, Sept. 25, 2019, that security forces arrested Hazem Hosny, Hassan Nafaa and Khaled Dawoud, three political activists known for their outspoken criticism of Egypt's government and the president. Egypt has seen a wave of arrests following small but rare anti-government protests over the weekend. Police quickly dispersed the protests. Demonstrations in Egypt have been almost completely silenced in recent years under President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi. (AP Photo/Amr Nabil, File)
