President Volodymyr Zelensky has signed a decree that combined nationwide TV channels into one platform. “It’s important that the country has a unified information policy” under martial law, said the president's office, adding that no channels will be disconnected. Earlier, four Ukrainian TV channels - ICTV, 1+1, Inter and Ukraina - united their broadcasting. Opposition lawmaker Mykola Kniazhytsky, owner of Espresso TV channel, said the decree is "illegal and unfair."
