History


Afghanistan International TV was launched on August 15, 2021 as a sister station of Iran International. Originally planned to start on International Day of Peace, it was launched earlier due to the situation in Afghanistan amid the Taliban's capture of Kabul and quickly became the most popular news channel for Afghanistan due to its extensive coverage and freedom in reporting.
Originally only broadcasting programmes in Farsi, the station started Pashto language broadcasts in August 2023.
In May 2024, Afghan authorities banned individuals from cooperating or participating to Afghanistan International, the Taliban's ruled Ministry of information and culture spokesman said that “participating in discussions and facilitating the broadcast of this media outlet in public places is prohibited”.
