On 28 September, Al-Janoub TV (Harakat al-Jihad wal-Bina — official) captioned footage of men at a podium as a Basra tribal condemnation of restrictions on Iranian flights and a demand for immediate reversal. Press reporting describes the dispute as Baghdad seeking U.S. sanctions exemptions to restore civilian flights with Iran, while Iraqi airports face warnings about servicing sanctioned Iranian airlines. The footage has no assessed speech, so the tribal demand is established as the channel’s caption rather than as an independently heard statement.

“The governorate’s tribes condemn the ban on Iranian flights and demand immediate reversal of the decision. #Basra”
عشائر المحافظة تستنكر حظر الطيران الإيراني وتطالب بالتراجع الفوري عن القرار #البصرة
a dated statement from the tribal gathering, an Iraqi decision reversing the restrictions, or an announced U.S. exemption would clarify the demand and its outcome; any of these moves this file.
