Al-Nujaba TV (Nujaba — official) attacks NTV portrayal

WHAT HAPPENED

On 16 August 2026 Al-Nujaba TV (Nujaba — official) posted a statement it attributed to political-council member Firas al-Yaser saying Iraqi media disorder had exceeded religious and national constants and asking how an official channel claiming independence could distort the image of the fighters and market misleading meanings. He said the channel’s policies should be reconsidered because it represented only its officials and those behind them. The post was tagged to NTV Iraq.

    “How can an official channel claiming independence, professionalism, and representation of all Iraqis work to distort the image of the fighters who sacrificed to preserve Iraqis’ dignity? … Its policies should be reconsidered, because it represents only its officials and those behind them.”

    كيف لقناة رسمية تدعي الاستقلالية والمهنية, وتمثيل كل العراقيين, العمل والإسهام في تشويه صورة المجاهدين الذين ضحوا من إجل حفظ كرامة العراقيين؟! ... من المفترض أن يُعاد النظر في سياسات هذه القناة, لأنها لا تمثل سوى مسؤوليها ومن يقف خلفهم.
