Al-Nujaba TV (Nujaba — official) published a photograph of roughly thirty men in tribal dress arrayed behind a microphone-laden podium, captioned that Baghdad tribal sheikhs and notables affirm their categorical rejection of handing over Jurf al-Nasr or allowing terrorism and its incubators to return there. The channel carried it under its standing hashtag #لاتسلم_تسلم. This stands at preponderance: only Nujaba's own channel carries it, and the visual review can establish a formal outdoor gathering with media equipment but not the location, date or the identity or affiliation of any participant.

“Baghdad tribal sheikhs and notables affirm their categorical rejection of handing over Jurf al-Nasr or allowing terrorism and its incubators to return there. #DoNotHandOver_YouWillBeSafe”
شيوخ ووجهاء عشائر العاصمة بغداد يؤكدون رفضهم القاطع لتسليم جرف النصر أو السماح بعودة الإرهاب وحواضنه إليها #لاتسلم_تسلم
Jurf al-Nasr's status — closed to its displaced residents and under factional security control — is the concrete test of who exercises authority on the ground, and the tribal endorsement supplies social cover for keeping the current arrangement whatever the law says about integration.
