Al-Ahad TV (AAH — official) labels Zakho incident separatist

WHAT HAPPENED

On 16 August 2026, Al-Ahad TV (AAH — official) twice presented stadium footage it said showed Zakho fans lowering the Iraqi flag during a match with Gas al-Shamal and labeled the conduct “separatist.” Visual review shows a red flag being carried or lowered and does not clearly identify it as the Iraqi flag. No other tracked faction channel in the window carried the item.
