ID & news in English at 18-00 UTC: obituary of Vasily Kovaliov the last ex-prisoner of soviet Kolyma's GULAG labour camp in Magadan:) --- "ZBC is widely perceived as a government-aligned outlet, with its editorial line closely echoing the priorities and messaging of the ruling party in Zanzibar. Independent journalists and civil society organizations regard the broadcaster with skepticism, often citing its lack of editorial autonomy and its role in reinforcing state narratives. There is no internal editorial statute that guarantees impartiality, and no independent oversight mechanism exists to evaluate or enforce editorial standards. In practice, ZBC serves more as an instrument of state communication than as a platform for balanced public discourse." https://statemediamonitor.com/2025/06/zanzibar-broadcasting-corporation-zbc/ --- TX: 50 kW (Dole, Mjini Magharibi/Zanzibar, Tanzania) QTH: MP87DA ANT: 70 m LW outdoor RX: ICF-SW7600GR DX: 8648 km Received at 20-00 UTC on July 25th, 2018 in North-West Siberia, Russia
