Al-Janoub TV, Harakat al-Jihad wal-Bina's official channel, posted a Baghdad report on demonstrations by long-graduated students in the capital, framing them around government inability to appoint them and parliamentary efforts to secure their rights, at 02:03 on 18 August 2026. About an hour later it carried a street vendor's appeal to the prime minister to provide an alternative site and suitable rents, saying he would then be the first to dismantle his stall. Visual review of the protest item shows a studio broadcast rather than footage of the demonstration itself.
