On August 25, Al-Ittijah TV (KH — official) reported that the Attab tribe in Wasit rejected surrendering “resistance weapons” and the return of alleged extremists to Jurf al-Nasr. Fifteen minutes later, it reported that unnamed “national voices” opposed sectarian rhetoric and attempts to return alleged extremists to the area; neither item contained a statement from KH leadership or an operational plan.

“National voices reject sectarian rhetoric and failed attempts to return takfiris to Jurf al-Nasr.”
أصوات وطنية ترفض الخطاب الطائفي والمحاولات الفاشلة لإعادة التكفيريين إلى جرف النصر
The weapons-retention position rests on one KH-owned report quoting a tribal stance, not a KH leadership statement; opposition to returns at Jurf al-Nasr is the element repeated across both reports.
