Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting protests against Intelsat illegal measure

The Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) has blasted the Intelsat Satellite Company for banning the broadcast of IRIB satellite channels.

(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - IRIB has slammed the illegal measure of this satellite company in banning IRIB satellite channels, such as the English-language Press TV, calling this illegitimate measure of the Intelsat as unjustifiable.

The letter of IRIB points out that this illegal decision of the Intelsat violates the mutual contracts concluded between this Satellite Company and IRIB and is in contrast to the commitments of Intelsat.

IRIB underscored that severance of broadcast of Iran's satellite networks by Intelsat Satellite Company sabotages the free flow of information and breaches the rights of all individuals, who use these services.
