Across roughly an hour on the evening of 20 August, Al-Ahad TV (AAH — official) ran a linked series of #الحد_الفاصل posts on Jarf al-Nasr: the Babil governor saying everyone can enter Jarf al-Nasr "except Khamis al-Khanjar"; Turki saying the area is not Sunni and that the people of al-Saeedat are still displaced, with the on-screen banner adding "we prevented the return of the people of al-Saeedat because of the security danger"; Turki saying security vetting recorded 5,000 terrorists from Jarf al-Nasr; and a further banner citing some 85 houses in an urban-planning scheme and a call for "real government care to clean Jarf al-Nasr". All of it comes from one channel and one studio segment; nothing in the collected material corroborates the figures or identifies who imposes the entry rule.

"باستثناء خميس الخنجر".. محافظ بابل: بإمكان الجميع الدخول إلى جرف النصر
Jarf al-Nasr is the standing test case for whether displaced Sunni populations return to militia-held ground, and the faction's own channel is here supplying both the justification for keeping them out and the identity of the politician kept out with them.
