Belarus 1 (Belarusian: Беларусь 1) is a state-owned television channel in Belarus.

It is the oldest television channel in the country. The channel is on air from 6:00 am to 2:00 am on the next day, in contrast with most public channels in Europe, which broadcast 24-hour programming. It is used to spread propaganda in Belarus.[1]
