Two journalists in the former Soviet republic of Azerbaijan have been jailed after publishing an article that some Muslims said insulted Islam.
Samir Sadaqatoglu and Rafiq Tagi, from Sanat newspaper, were sentenced to four and three years in prison respectively, for inciting religious hatred.
It is the latest in a series of jail sentences for journalists in energy-rich Azerbaijan.
Violence and reprisals, such as prison sentences, against journalists have been on the upswing for the past several months.
