Russia destroys broadcasting equipment used by Hromadske Radio and Capri TV in Pokrovsk

A Russian shelling strike on Pokrovsk (Donetsk oblast) on September 17 destroyed the broadcasting equipment used by Hromadske Radio and the local TV channel "Capri", Hromadske Radio reports.

"Broadcasting has been stopped indefinitely, as the safety situation does not allow to carry out emergency and repair work at the transmission station," Hromadske Radio explains.

As reported earlier, Hromadske Radio only started broadcasting in Pokrovsk on August 28, 2024.

On September 9, 2024 Hromadske Radio had to dismantle their equipment in Hirnyk, Donetsk oblast, due to a difficult safety situation.

On September 13, Hromadske Radio temporarily stopped broadcasting in Nikopol (Dnipropetrovsk oblast) due to a power outage.
