They are still on air but now seem to be repeating the same 30 minute anti-Ukraine programme nearly every hour.
I've got my suspicions that even some of the hourly news slots are repeats.
The EU certainly pulled the plug on Hotbird 13, which I’ve been told was the incoming London feed. RT were capable of using a private downlink, which would have come with considerable cost & also London is just in the footprint of ABS2 whose operators are Hong Kong based.
