Deeyar TV is the visual media division of the DEEYAR MEDIA ASSOCIATION, a non-profit entity established under the French Law of 1901. The organization operates with the legal identifiers SIREN 994360881, SIRET 99436088100019, and the association registration number W912016909, and is officially headquartered in Fleury-Mérogis, France.
Deeyar TV was founded by Yaser ABRAR and a small group of Afghan journalists in exile following the collapse of Afghanistan’s media achievements and the dismantling of its freedom-of-expression structures. It was created to serve as an independent and professional visual platform for documenting and presenting the realities of the country—an outlet whose core mission is to safeguard the public’s right to information and free expression.
The non-profit nature of Deeyar TV lies at the heart of its organizational identity. Its resources are derived from the professional commitment of its founder and journalists, and no political body, commercial actor, or external stakeholder has any influence over its editorial decisions or orientation. This structural independence enables responsible, impartial, and internationally aligned journalism.
With a network of reporters inside Afghanistan—operating through secure communication channels—and correspondents in various countries, Deeyar TV provides precise and documented coverage of Afghanistan’s political, social, and human developments. By focusing on truth, human dignity, and democratic values, the outlet strives to amplify the voices of citizens—especially women and marginalized groups—and ensure their presence within the global public record.
Deeyar TV regards itself not merely as a media outlet, but as a shared responsibility to defend freedom of expression—an initiative established to uphold the right of the people of Afghanistan to be seen and heard.
