An Australian Al Jazeera journalist, convicted and jailed by Egypt, has been freed after 400 days in custody.
Peter Greste was freed and deported, while two other Al Jazeera reporters are still being held.
Mohamed Fahmy and Baher Mohamed, like Mr Greste, were convicted of spreading false news and aiding the Muslim Brotherhood. Some reports indicate Mr Fahmy, who holds dual Canadian-Egyptian nationality will be deported to Canada after having his Egyptian nationality revoked. Egyptian Mr Mohamed's fate remains unclear.
Mostefa Souag, acting director-general of the Al Jazeera media network, said in a statement: "We're pleased for Peter and his family that they are to be reunited. It has been an incredible and unjustifiable ordeal for them, and they have coped with incredible dignity...
"We will not rest until Baher and Mohamed also regain their freedom.
"The Egyptian authorities have it in their power to finish this properly today, and that is exactly what they must do."
