YouTube channels of 112 Ukraine, NewsOne, and ZIK – Ukrainian TV channels that are associated with MP from the Opposition Platform - For Life party Viktor Medvedchuk – are no longer available in Ukraine, Culture and Information Policy Minister Oleksandr Tkachenko has said.

“This is an important step towards the recognition by the world community of Ukraine's struggle against information influence on the part of the aggressor state. I am grateful to the specialists of the YouTube platform who drew attention to our appeal and the NSDC decision regarding TV channels that posed a threat to Ukraine's national security, since they were not media outlets or regular broadcasters, but part of Russia's propaganda war against Ukraine,” Tkachenko wrote on his Telegram channel, Ukrinform reports.

YouTube channels of 112 Ukraine, NewsOne, and ZIK can still be found in the search, but their broadcasting has been suspended.

As Ukrinform reported, on February 2, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky enacted the decision of the National Security and Defense Council to impose sanctions against the NewsOne, ZIK and 112 Ukraine TV channels, as well as their owner, MP from the Opposition Platform – For Life party, Taras Kozak. The sanctions, among other things, provide for the revocation of licenses of these pro-Russian TV channels. As of the morning of February 3, the broadcasting of NewsOne, ZIK and 112 Ukraine was blocked.
