Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is considering shutting down the local offices of Arab broadcaster Al-Jazeera following a crackdown against Qatar by Sunni countries across the region, officials said.

The Egyptian president has pardoned two Al-Jazeera journalists and dozens of human rights activists.

Egypt’s Foreign Ministry has summoned the British ambassador over comments he made in court after a judge sentenced three Al-Jazeera English journalists to three years prison each for reporting “false news.”
