Between 19:52 and 20:53 Al-Ahad TV (AAH — official owned media) aired two security-expert segments. Adnan al-Kanani said on "Before Tomorrow" that "Riyadh does not possess intelligence capability and benefited from America in striking the targets," that Saudi Arabia is "normalised with the Zionist entity under American supervision," that "Saudi Arabia carried out sorties days ago within the borders of Dhi Qar and Samawa before the aggression," that "Saudi Arabia targeted holy Karbala to stir chaos and push Iraq into fighting," that "5,000 Saudi suicide bombers were thrust by Riyadh into Iraq," and that "Iraqis are able to overrun Saudi Arabia within hours like Kuwait, but the military response may be costly" — while also saying "Iraq is required to exercise restraint and study the responses" and calling to "activate the anti-espionage law and pursue parties communicating against Iraq." In a separate segment, expert Abdul Karim Khalf said entering "total war" has preconditions including military capabilities, and that the 55 trillion spent on electricity over three years could have made Iraq first in armament. These are the channel's invited voices; no AAH leadership statement in the window makes the Dhi Qar, Samawa or 5,000-bombers claims.
The channel is building the evidentiary case for a Saudi role — reconnaissance flights, Karbala targeting, historical grievance — which is the material any later claim of retaliation against Saudi-based assets would rest on, while simultaneously routing the response toward courts and espionage prosecutions rather than strikes.
