Television channel
Russia-24 (Russian: Россия-24, romanized: Rossiya-24) is a state-owned Russian-language news channel from Russia. It covers major national and international events and focuses on domestic issues. It is owned by VGTRK.[1][2]
The broadcast began July 1, 2006 in Russia, February 7, 2007 on the West Coast of the United States, May 19, 2008 in Serbia, and October 9, 2008 in Kyrgyzstan. VGTRK Crimea started broadcasting on March 10, 2014.
The editor-in-chief of the channel is Evgeny Bekasov (since 2012).
The channel ostensibly aims to give a broad and impartial [2] outline of life in all of Russia’s regions from its European exclave of Kaliningrad to Vladivostok in the Far East. The channel was named Vesti until 1 January 2010, when the public-owned VGTRK rebranded its channels.
Russia-24 was banned in Ukraine, Moldova, the United Kingdom, and the European Union as a result of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.[3] The channel falsely claimed that the Bucha massacre was staged and suggested that footage of actors placing mannequins on a film set in St. Petersburg were Ukrainian soldiers using the mannequins to "pass it off as a corpse".[4]
The United Kingdom and Australia imposed sanctions upon Evgeniy Poddubny, one of the top war correspondents and propagandists of Russia-24.[5][6]
