Shams TV Live Stream

Shams TV is an Iraqi Arabic language news channel based in Erbil, in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. Its official site publishes coverage of Iraqi, regional and international events, alongside sections for business, sport and entertainment. The station’s identity combines a regional newsroom with a broad view of public affairs across Iraq and the Middle East.

Reporting from Erbil

The channel is operated by Shams News Ltd, part of Kurdistan Media Network. Its contact information places the organisation at KMN Media City on Shaqlawa Road in Erbil. This base connects the newsroom with political and social developments in the Kurdistan Region, while the site’s international and Arab news sections follow events beyond the city and country.

Shams TV publishes in Arabic and carries reports on Iraq and the Kurdistan Region, together with news from the Arab world and international coverage. Its editorial mix includes political developments, society, business and public issues. The website also highlights sport and entertainment, giving the channel a wider news profile than a politics only service.

Current affairs and discussion

Political discussion is part of the channel’s output. The official programme catalogue includes Live with Stephen Nabil, a conversation programme covering developments in Iraq and the region. Its episodes bring political decisions, security questions and economic changes into the same discussion, with guests and analysis connected to current events.

Shams also presents cultural and social programming. The official site has featured Athar with Ayman Zidan, a programme built around conversations with figures from Arab artistic and cultural life. The channel has also promoted Shams Al Sabah, a morning programme covering health, culture and social subjects. These formats extend its schedule beyond bulletins and political analysis.

News, economy and sport

The site groups reporting under subjects that include economy, sport and entertainment. Economic stories follow markets, public decisions and changes affecting everyday life. Sports coverage and cultural reporting sit beside current affairs, reflecting the channel’s effort to address different interests among its Arabic speaking audience.

A regional media network

Shams TV is part of the wider Kurdistan Media Network, whose presence in Erbil gives the channel a distinct regional setting. Its Arabic news service covers local issues while keeping attention on regional and international events. By combining reporting with programmes about politics, culture and society, Shams contributes a contemporary Iraqi Kurdish perspective to the country’s television landscape.
