Al-Ittijah TV links disarmament pressure to PMF dissolution

WHAT HAPPENED

On 15 August, Al-Ittijah TV (KH — official) carried Al-Aboudi’s statement that U.S. pressure to hand over resistance weapons may be a prelude to dissolving the Popular Mobilization Forces. The statement described a possible consequence of weapons pressure rather than a reported decision to dissolve the PMF.

WATCH

Watch: a follow-up on Al-Ittijah TV naming a specific U.S. or Iraqi disarmament measure, or an official action concerning PMF dissolution, by 18 August would move this file beyond a conditional warning; none by that date favors the political-rhetoric reading; any of these moves this file.
