‘Independent experts’ used by Al-Jazeera have determined where the jamming was coming from, the network said on its website late Tuesday.
The experts were ‘confident about both the locations and who is responsible,’ Al-Jazeera said, adding that trackers have identified locations east and west of Cairo, and specifically identified military installations as the source of interference.
The network said it has been forced to change frequencies several times to allow viewers to watch its news and sport channels.
Egyptian authorities and local media have accused Al-Jazeera of biased reporting on the popularly-backed coup that toppled Islamist president Mohammed Morsi on 3 July and on its bloody aftermath. The Qatari network has given wide coverage to demonstrations that followed Morsi’s arrest and the crackdown on Muslim Brotherhood protesters.
