On 21 September, Ashab al-Kahf said resistance weapons could be regulated only after every foreign force left Iraq, specifically including the U.S.-led coalition and U.S. and Turkish forces. Its official and non-official channels described the weapons as protecting Iraq, while Jehad Brothers Team (Nujaba — affiliated) reproduced the statement verbatim; 964 subsequently reported that the statement concluded with allegiance Akram al-Kaabi, Nujaba’s secretary-general.

Ashab al-Kahf’s formulation makes foreign-force withdrawal an explicit prerequisite for regulating its weapons, while Nujaba-affiliated carriage gives that condition cross-network amplification.
