Volia adds Russian version of news channel to line-up

Ukrainian cable operator Volia is adding a Russian-language version of Ukrainian news channel 24 to its digital programming line-up on May 1.

Volia said the move would enable viewers to choose the language they preferred for the channel.
Only the Ukrainian-language version of 24 will air on Volia’s analogue tier.

Separately, Volia has opened a free promotional window for nostalgia channels Retro and Nostalgia. Viewers with Easy and Starter packages will be able to watch the two channels free of charge between April 22 and August 1.

Retro features library TV shows from years gone by, while Nostalgia features music from the ‘60s to the ‘90s, archive TV content and library movies.
