Protesting employees announced holding a protest in front of the Prime Ministry on Wednesday against what they considered "state thuggery" method of dealing with striking employees.

The protesting employees accused Department Director Fathi Ensour of "forcefully" removing the protest tent, a matter not denied by the Statistics department head.
