RSF radio frequency jammed in Iran, another attack on the right to inform

"The attempt to jam this frequency confirms the extent to which the Iranian authorities fear their population's access to free and independent information. By targeting a broadcasting medium specifically designed to circumvent internet shutdowns and digital censorship, the regime is doubling down on its efforts to deprive Iranians of any source of information beyond its control. We condemn this attempt to silence independent journalists and will continue to make every effort necessary to guarantee the right to information. RSF and its partners are implementing technical solutions that will allow the continued broadcasting of independent journalistic content to the Iranian population despite these jamming attempts."

"Shortwave broadcasts are designed to remain accessible in environments where communications may be disrupted or restricted. Despite attempts at interference, we continue our broadcasting mission using techniques that render such jamming ineffective; RFPI and RSF remain and will remain fully committed to standing with the Iranian people."
