“The writer and political researcher Muhannad Jawad asks: why is the weapons-control file being opened before the evacuation of American forces from Iraq?”
الكاتب والباحث السياسي مهند جواد يتساءل: لماذا يُفتح ملف حصر السلاح قبل إجلاء القوات الأميركية من العراق؟
a statement on the arms file issued in Kataib Hezbollah's own name; the same argument repeated by Asaib Ahl al-Haq, Kata'ib Sayyid al-Shuhada or Badr Organization media; a named government step on weapons control; or a link drawn on these channels between the arms file and the reported patience warning — any of these moves this file.
