Broadcasting has been stopped in Melitopol (Zaporizhzhia oblast), since Russian troops took TV tower. The TV channel MTV Plus was forced off.
This was reported on February 28 by the National Council of Television and Radio Broadcasting.
“The analog transmitter was launched quickly and the broadcasters held the fort to the last. But the Russian occupiers forced MTV Plus to stop broadcasting. There is also no broadcasting in Primorsk, Berdyansk and Tokmak,” the statement reads.
Also, the situation in Chernihiv oblast is complicated. The occupiers are targeting the TV tower, four missiles hit nearby. Some broadcasters stopped working and resumed work. Suspilne continues to broadcast.
In Kupyansk, Kharkiv oblast, a local TV and radio company managed to evacuate the equipment before the city was captured, so the occupier will not be able to use the air for propaganda activities.
Media workers in Sumy oblast continue to work in battlefield conditions. “Despite several consequent days of shelling, they go on air from basements, bomb shelters, but they keep working,” the NCTRB wrote.
