Between 18:22 and 18:35 on 3 August, Al-Ahad TV (AAH — official owned media) published five items from its "Burj Muraqaba" programme carrying Salam Adel, head of the Information and Analysis Center, attacking Fuad Hussein and his ministry: the file is a "ticking time bomb", the absence of the Iraqi flag in Damascus shows an "idle ministry", more than 900 employees were appointed abroad while mission staff face eviction over unpaid rents, more than 65 ambassadors "clock in at Alawi" with missions left without ambassadors, and Baghdad Municipality is "better" than the Foreign Ministry. The five posts are consecutive segments of one broadcast, so this is one campaign push on AAH's own platform rather than five independent sources; the allegations themselves carry no corroboration in the collected material.
