At 15:50 on 29 July, Al-Ahad TV (Asaib Ahl al-Haq — official) published a correspondents' network round-up reporting "no human losses following the brutal Saudi-American aggression on the city of Amirli", "10 martyrs and 7 wounded as a result of the Saudi-American aggression on the Popular Mobilization headquarters in the city of Bartella in the Nineveh Plain", that the headquarters was struck "while its members were resting", and that Arbaeen pilgrims in Karbala "demand the government respond appropriately to the Saudi-American aggression". Two minutes later, Unit 10,000 (Kata'ib Hezbollah — affiliated) posted a video captioned with the words of the commander of a brigade "that was bombed today in Diyala province by the Saudi-American aggression", quoting him "this path we chose and we must continue on it". The statement issued in the name of Islamic Resistance in Iraq, carried by both factions' channels in the same hours, instead attributes the killings to "the American enemy" and opens with "categorical denial of any targeting of the Saudi entity and its installations". Asaib Ahl al-Haq's own channel carried both framings within roughly twenty minutes. Exact-text republication was also observed on Jehad Brothers Team (affiliated/aligned media), Shabab al-Islam (owned/non-official media), KAF Center (official social media channel), Al-Nujaba TV (official owned media), Sabereen News (affiliated/aligned media), Ilam al-Muqawama (affiliated/aligned media), and Al-Ilam al-Harbi (affiliated/aligned media).
