On 28 September, Al-Ahad TV (AAH — official) published a graphic saying that 30 September would bring a complete American departure and leave Iraq without U.S. forces. Later that morning, Al-Nujaba TV (Nujaba — official) attributed to Sheikh Mujtaba al-Mansouri the description of 30 September as a day of incomplete sovereignty. His position is an attributed guest remark, not a Nujaba institutional statement.

“30 September: complete departure of the Americans; Iraq without U.S. forces.”
30 أيلول.. جلاءٌ كامل للأمريكان.. العراق بلا قوات أميركية
- Al-Nujaba TVNujaba — official28 Sept, 11:45
“Sheikh Mujtaba al-Mansouri: 30 September is a day of deficient and incomplete sovereignty.”
الشيخ مجتبى المنصوري: 30 أيلول يوم سيادة منقوص وغير مكتمل
The distinction is between a channel’s claim about the extent of a military departure and a guest’s judgment about sovereignty; it is not evidence of an institutional dispute between AAH and Nujaba.
