Between 23:38 on 2 August and 00:07 on 3 August, Al-Ahad TV (AAH — official) published four items from its "Qabl al-Ghad" programme on Iraq's fiscal position. Former MP Mohammed al-Shabaki was quoted saying the Central Bank will be unable to finance salaries after month ten and that Iraq has passed its ceiling and cannot borrow again from the World Bank; Qaisar al-Jorani was quoted rejecting borrowing, putting "compulsory saving" forward as a government option, and saying "Adnan al-Jumaili" had cost Iraqis billions with "hundreds" like him. The on-screen banner on two of the segments read "Salaries are shaken to the rhythm of Hormuz!". These are the channel's guests speaking; nothing in the supplied material shows the government adopting any of it, and no other collected channel carried the line.
