History
The station was commissioned in 1983, beginning its broadcasts in February 1985. The station was taken off the air in 1996 by the order of the Taliban.
The station returned to the air on November 29, 2001, alongside all stations shut down in 1996 except Badakhshan. The Herat station restarted in a precarious manner, broadcasting for no less than three hours a day. The first news report was about the first local elections in 30 years, won by a former diplomat and Taliban representative. A few weeks later on January 14, 2002, the station received a technical boost from Iranian technicians, who in addition allowed the cross-border rebroadcast of three over-the-air IRIB networks.
On May 15, 2008, a journalist working at the station, Nilofer Habibi, was attacked.
