Discovery and Eurosport channels to cease broadcasting in Belarus
From July 1, the thematic Discovery package, along with its main channel Discovery Channel, will disappear from the Zala IPTV broadcasting network. In addition, viewers will lose access to sports channels Eurosport 1 and Eurosport 2. Details.
Beltelecom explained the reason: the term of the agreement with the rights holder is coming to an end.
To replace the outgoing channels, Beltelecom offers a new thematic VIP HD package. It includes:
- Viasat Nature/History HD TV channel with programs about nature, travel, history, and unusual adventures.
- “Viasat HD Sports Channel” with competition broadcasts.
