Arabsat Condemned for Banning Al-Manar TV

Sunday 6 December 2015
Arabsat Condemned for Banning Al-Manar TV
Alwaght- Arabsat Company has been roundly condemned across the region for banning the broadcasting of Al-Manar TV via its satellites, with many organizations voicing solidarity with the Lebanese channel and the free media.
The Palestinian Radios and Televisions Union pointed out that Arabsat action against Al-Manar is included in the scheme of aborting the ongoing Intifada or uprising against the Israeli regime. The Islamic Radios and Televisions Union denounced the unjust attempts to silence Al-Manar voice and spotless image.

Al-Mayadeen TV channel also expressed solidarity with Al-Manar, calling on establishing an alternative Arab media strategy.
The Syria information ministry firmly condemned Arabsat action and greeted Al-Manar staff, considering that victory is achieved by the free and honest.

Ansarullah Yemeni movement expressed its solidarity with Al-Manar, noting that Arabsat measures are in the context of targeting all the channels which face the imperialist project.

Several other Arab and Islamic TV channels denounced Arabsat measures against Al-Manar, considering that they serve the Zionist scheme in the region.
In a statement published on its website on Friday, al-Manar, which is run by Lebanon’s resistance movement Hezbollah, said the Arab Satellite Communications Organization (ASCO) blocked the broadcast of the news channel via the Arabsat satellites.
“In the latest step in the policy of muzzling voices … the Arabsat company has blocked the al-Manar channel, after the company's offices were moved from Lebanon to Jordan,” the TV station said.
The statement also said “al-Manar is the voice of the Bahrainis, Saudis, Iraqis, Syrians, Tunisians, Egyptians and all the Arabs and Muslims,” vowing to continue its coverage of the developments in the region and the entire Muslim world.
The television channel also emphasized that it will keep up its support for the Palestinian cause, adding that Arabsat’s move cannot stop al-Manar from “conveying the resistance’s voice in face of oppression.”
