Ronahi TV online television

Ronahi TV is a Kurdish television channel that was launched in 2012 as the first Kurdish-language channel established by Syrian Kurds, with its headquarters located in the city of Qamishli (also known as Qamishlo) in northeastern Syria . The channel runs through the collective efforts of approximately 250 volunteers and maintains reporting teams in the regions of Kobani and Afrin, operating as a community-focused media organization rather than a traditional commercial broadcaster . As a dedicated source for online television, Ronahi TV broadcasts primarily in the Kurdish language, with additional programming in Arabic and English, focusing on Kurdish communities around the world and covering news, cultural shows, documentaries, and entertainment .

The programming schedule allows viewers to watch live channel coverage of diverse content that highlights Kurdish culture, history, and contemporary issues. The channel features an English-language program titled Inside Rojava, which provides international audiences with insights into the social, political, and cultural landscape of the region . One of the channel`s hosts, Rudi Mohamed Amid, a veteran journalist, greets viewers with the phrase "Roj bas, Kurdistan" (Good morning, Kurdistan) and has been noted for his professional presence despite many staff members lacking prior media experience before the Syrian war . Another regular program host is Taha Khalil, a Syrian writer, painter, and intellectual who presents a television program on Ronahi TV while also serving as one of three directors at the Rojava Centre for Strategic Studies . The channel has faced significant challenges including the deaths and injuries of several journalists during the Syrian Civil War, with Mustefa Mihemed dying from injuries related to a mine explosion on July 13, 2016, Kendal Cudi being injured in the same incident, and Zekeriya Şêxo wounded during the Turkish military operation in Afrin . In March 2026, a fire broke out at the channel`s central headquarters building in Qamishlo, starting in the main studio section and spreading to the control room, causing serious material damage and temporarily suspending live broadcasts .

For audiences seeking a reliable live stream of Kurdish news and cultural content from Syria, Ronahi TV is widely available as a free-to-air service via multiple satellite positions. The channel broadcasts in SD format on Eutelsat 7 West A at 7.3 degrees West, covering the MENA region on frequency 11354 V with a symbol rate of 27500, using DVB-S2 8PSK transmission and MPEG-4 video encoding . The channel is also available on Hotbird 13G at 13.0 degrees East on frequency 12520 V with a symbol rate of 27500, using MPEG-2 SD video and broadcasting primarily in Kurdish . The channel has faced pressure from satellite providers, with Eutelsat expressing its intention in April 2017 to remove Ronahi TV from its platform on grounds that the channel broadcast statements by members of the Kurdistan Communities Union (KCK) and the Kurdistan Workers` Party (PKK), which are considered terrorist organizations, though the channel continued broadcasting . The channel is accessible as tv online through its official website ronahi.tv, as well as via various cable networks and IPTV services across the Middle East and Europe, ensuring that its Kurdish, Arabic, and English programming reaches Kurdish communities both within Syria and across the global diaspora .
