Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has been sentenced to eight months in prison for fraud and breach of trust.
He was convicted at a retrial in March of taking more than $150,000 (£96,000) from a US businessman. His lawyers have said they will appeal.
The sentence is in addition to a six-year jail term he received last year, after a separate bribery trial.
