Al-Nujaba TV (Nujaba — official) posted this evening that Khalid Abu Iraq, appearing on its programme #بصراحة_مع_عذراء, issued what the channel headlined as "the last warning" and threatened to cut the roads and trade between Baghdad and Erbil, adding there should be "no separate residence among the sons of the nation". Within the same fifteen minutes the same channel carried him warning Masoud Barzani against insulting Shia tribes. The threat rests on a single channel's own broadcast; the supplied evidence does not state Abu Iraq's factional office, and the host channel's affiliation is not his.
