The information that the occupiers in Melitopol took control of the television tower and broadcast Russian television from it is untrue, the State Service for Special Communications and Information Protection of Ukraine has said.

"The media are spreading information that the occupiers in Melitopol have taken control of the television tower and are broadcasting Russian television from it. This is fake news! Not a single digital television transmitter on the television tower in Melitopol is working yet," the State Special Communications Service said on its Telegram.

TV in Melitopol is broadcasted with the help of an analog transmitter located outside the TV tower, to which the Concern for Radio Broadcasting, Radio Communication and Television has nothing to do.
