Egypt gives journalists three-year sentence

Three al-Jazeera journalists convicted in Egypt of "spreading false news" have been sentenced to three years in prison at their retrial in Cairo.
Canadian-Egyptian Mohamed Fahmy and Egyptian Baher Mohamed were in court to hear the verdict.
Australian Peter Greste was deported to Australia earlier this year and was on trial again in absentia.
They are accused of aiding the banned Muslim Brotherhood group but they strenuously deny the allegations.
