Three Al-Jazeera journalists have been sentenced to three years in prison in Egypt.
Mohamed Fahmy, Baher Mohamed and Peter Greste were convicted of “spreading false news” and aiding the banned Muslim Brotherhood group.
All three stenuously deny the accusations.
Shocked. Outraged. Angry. Upset. None of them convey how I feel right now. 3 yr sentences for @bahrooz, @MFFahmy11 and me is so wrong.
