Russia 24 online - Television live

Russia 24 Live Stream

Russia 24 is the 24-hour news channel of Russia's VGTRK state broadcasting company, covering national and world events with the country's largest regional correspondent network. Grown out of the Vesti news channel launched in 2006, it broadcasts in Russian around the clock and streams its live signal through the company's Smotrim platform.

The State News Channel

The channel's defining feature is its regional structure: VGTRK's branches across Russia's regions insert their own local news windows into the national airtime, giving Russia 24 a breadth of regional coverage no other Russian channel matches. News editions run through the day, with current-affairs and talk programs carrying analysis between them.

News, Business, Weather

Beyond the headlines, the schedule carries business reports, weather editions for the country's regions and cultural and social magazines. Breaking events switch the channel to rolling coverage, the format it was built for.

The Newsroom of the VGTRK Family

As the news channel of the VGTRK family - the All-Russia State Television and Radio Broadcasting Company - Russia 24 shares the resources of the country's biggest state broadcaster: the regional network, the foreign bureaus and the newsroom that also feeds Channel One Russia's sister channels. For Russian-language viewers at home and abroad, it remains the state system's round-the-clock news screen.
