Philippines’ platform SkyCable has finally pulled the plug on Russian government-backed TV service, RT (Russia Today), saying that it had been unable to access content since March this year and that it would no longer hold space on the dial.

The spot on SkyCable was pulled on Friday (14 October).

Other platforms in Asia pulled the channel and filled the gap much earlier, saying the channel had been suspended at source and its position on their dials would no longer be available.
