		</div><p>Egypt’s President Abdel Fattah el-Sissi has reportedly pardoned prisoners including Canadian Al-Jazeera journalist Mohamed Fahmy.</p>
<p>Egypt’s state-run news agency MENA says Mr Fahmy is among a number of prisoners, including prominent human rights activists, to be released.</p>
<p>Lawyer Khaled Abu Bakr confirmed the pardon and says his client is a “professional and innocent journalist”.</p>
<p>Mr Fahmy was sentenced to three years in prison last month for airing what a court described as “false news” and biased coverage. His colleague Baher Mohammed was also sentenced in the case.</p>
<p>Prominent activists Yara Sallam and Sanaa Seif are also among those pardoned, according to MENA.</p>
