RTB started broadcasting on 12 October 1959. During the 2014 uprising, protesters stormed the building of the RTB, seized the technical equipment and stopped broadcasts of the TVB and RB.
At the 2022 Burkinabé coup d'état the mutinous soldiers declared on RTB television on 24 January 2022, that a military junta of Paul-Henri Sandaogo Damiba and his "Patriotic Movement for Safeguard and Restoration" had seized control of Burkina Faso.[1]
