The parliamentary television channel Rada is starting broadcasting to territories with a special broadcasting regime from May 20, the information directorate of Ukraine’s Verkhovna Rada apparatus said.
“As part of the efforts to develop digital television, the National Council of Television and Radio Broadcasting of Ukraine has issued the parliamentary television channel Rada permission for temporary broadcasts to territories with a special broadcasting regime,” the information directorate said in a report released on May 20.
According to the report, DVB-T2 digital transmitters have been installed on television towers in the Kherson, Donetsk and Luhansk regions.
Starting from May 20, Rada television will broadcast to Kramatorsk, Avdiyivka, Vuhledar, Hirnyk, and also populated areas in the Pokrovsky, Maryinka, Yasunovata and Slovyansk districts of the Donetsk region.
In the Luhansk region, Rada television will be accessible in Luhansk and the Stanytsia Luhanska districts.
In the Kherson region, the television channel will broadcast to the Skadovsky, Kalanchaksky, Kakhovsky and Chaplynsky districts, and the transmitter installed in the village of Chonhar will secure the Rada signal in the city of Armyansk, and also in the Dzhankoy and Krasnoperekopsk districts of Crimea.
There are plans to improve the quality of the Rada signal in the cities of Volnovakha, Mariupol and Bakhmutivka, the report said.
Under the Ukrainian legislation, territories with a special broadcasting regime are areas that border on “the temporarily occupied territories of Ukraine, the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, Sevastopol, and some areas of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions.”
