Broadcast debuts in Belarus: A peek into their programming
In a recent development, Belarus has introduced three new television channels starting from August 1, 2025. However, detailed information about the new channels, Channel 53 (.Red), Channel 54 (.Black), and the Timeless Dizi Channel, remains scarce in currently indexed Belarusian media coverage and official broadcast listings.
For those seeking specific details about these channels, it would be advisable to consult Belarusian media regulatory authorities, the official websites or social media of these channels (if available), or recent Belarusian news updates beyond the provided results.
Meanwhile, a new service called "Ogo!Kino" has been launched by Beltelekom in Belarus, offering a wide range of video content. The service, which can be accessed on TV or an Android TV set-top box, does not seem to be related to the new television channels mentioned earlier.
Unlike the new channels, "Ogo!Kino" is not specifically aimed at a particular gender or demographic. It provides access to films from AMEDIATEKA, START, "IVI", and Wink, offering movies and TV series as its content. New subscribers of "Ogo!Kino" are given a 7-day promotional period, and the monthly subscription fee is set at Br9.99.
Interestingly, Channel 54 is now known as .Black, a channel focused on content for men, also from Sony and leading global producers. On the other hand, Channel 53 is home to .Red, a channel aimed at a modern female audience, featuring TV series and programs from Sony Pictures Television, Paramount, BBC, Universal, Fremantle, and MGM.
The Timeless Dizi Channel, now available on channel 56, broadcasts the best Turkish dramas reflecting the rich culture and values of Turkey. It appears that the .Black and .Red channels are the only ones that offer content specifically tailored to a particular gender or demographic.
The new channels are available to viewers with expanded and basic ZALA IPTV packages, as well as the basic "Kanap TV" SMART ZALA package. Despite the availability of the Timeless Dizi Channel on channel 56, the "Ogo!Kino" app does not seem to broadcast Turkish dramas like Timeless Dizi Channel.
In conclusion, while detailed information about the new Belarusian television channels, Channel 53 (.Red), Channel 54 (.Black), and the Timeless Dizi Channel, is scarce, the launch of the "Ogo!Kino" app offers a new avenue for video content in Belarus.
To gather more information about the new television channels, Channel 53 (.Red) and Channel 54 (.Black), along with the Timeless Dizi Channel, it is recommended to reach out to Belarusian media regulatory authorities or check their official websites and social media for updates.
The "Ogo!Kino" service, however, provides a variety of movies and TV shows from several producers, such as AMEDIATEKA, START, "IVI", and Wink, but it does not seem to broadcast Turkish dramas like the Timeless Dizi Channel.
