Russian hackers try to jam 1+1 Media's channels
The Russians staged a large-scale interference in the Ukrainian TV broadcasting on the satellite Astra4A. At around 9.30 a.m., the Russians tried to jam the broadcasting the 1+1 Media and partner channels on the reception frequency 11766H (the affected channels include 1+1 Ukraine, 1+1 Marathon, TET, PLUSPLUS, Bigudi, 2+2, UNIAN, etc). Instead of the United News telethon and other broadcasters' content, for some time Ukrainian viewers could only see Russian propaganda, reports the 1+1 Media Holding press service.
As of 11.00 a.m., the problem was resolved and the satellite broadcasting was restored. "However, this is not Russia's last attempt to silence the content of Ukrainian TV channels in order to mislead the society and promote hostile narratives, especially in the territories bordering the temporarily occupied cities and villages," the media holding notes. They recommend their viewers, if possible, to ensure they can receive the TV channels' signal from various alternative sources such as T2, cable, OTT, or the Internet (TV channels's websites, YouTube). The Russians replaced Ukrainian content with a video of propagandist Diana Panchenko, according to the photos released by the Center for Strategic Communications. RELATED
