From 1 May Deutsche Welle has a second rebroadcasting partner in Iraq: Radio Alnas is rebroadcasting parts of the Arabic programme of DW-RADIO.
Four hours of DW programming daily is being rebroadcast in the evening, on MW 594 KHz which can be received nationwide. From June 2005 these programmes will also be on FM in Baghdad and in surrounding areas. Radio Alnas takes the DW signal via the Nilesat satellite.
DWs first rebroadcasting partner in Iraq was Radio Schatt Al-Arab in Basra.
