TV channel "DoTeBe" (Donetsk branch of the National Public Broadcasting Company of Ukraine) has received a license for satellite broadcasting and started broadcasting on both sides of the delimitative line on April 3. Interfax-Ukraine reported it with reference to press service of the National Public Broadcasting Company of Ukraine.

"Since the beginning of the anti-terrorist operation (ATO) regional branch of the National Television Company of Ukraine in Donetsk and Luhansk regions were located on the occupied territories. There was a decision to resume the Donetsk and Lugansk RSTBC on Ukraine controlled areas - in Severodonetsk and Kramatorsk. However, the signals of these channels were not available to local residents,"- the press service reminded.

Until now, Donetsk and Lugansk branch had been broadcasting using digital network with temporary permits and exclusively on the territory controlled by Ukraine.
