The Doha-based al Jazeera channel insists on the dissemination of fake and misleading news, Egypt's Foreign Ministry Spokesman Ahmed Abu Zeid said on Saturday.

A video published by the Qatari channel is not for an Egyptian diplomat or a member of Egypt's UNESCO mission, the spokesman wrote on Twitter.

After announcing the results of UNESCO election on Friday, al Jazeera channel published a video alleging that it shows an Egyptian diplomat.
