On August 28, Shabab al-Islam (Ashab al-Kahf — owned/non-official) relayed State of Law Coalition member Ibrahim al-Sukaini’s statement that “the sons of the resistance” would oppose efforts to return Daesh to Jurf al-Nasr and that the militants’ bodies would become food for stray dogs. Later, Unit 10,000 (KH — affiliated) reported that a popular support convoy from Basra had reached Jurf al-Nasr to assist stationed fighters; visual review showed a vehicle convoy and gathering but could not verify the stated destination or purpose.

“Efforts to return Daesh terrorism to Jurf al-Nasr will never succeed, as the sons of the resistance will stand against such plans... The terrorists’ bodies will be food for stray dogs if Jurf al-Nasr is opened to the return of Daesh terrorism again.”
السعي لإعادة الإرهاب الداعشي إلى جرف النصر لن يكتب له النجاح إطلاقاً، حيث سيقف أبناء المقاومة ضد هكذا مخططات ... جثث الإرهابيين ستكون طعاماً للكلاب السائبة في حال الذهاب نحو فتح جرف النصر أمام عودة الإرهاب الداعشي مرة أخرى.

“A popular support convoy from the people of Basra arrives in Jurf al-Nasr to support and assist the stationed fighters.”
قافلة الدعم الشعبي لأهلي البصرة تصل الى مدينة جرف النصر لدعم ومؤازرة المجاهدين المرابطين.
The two channels converged on defending the existing militia position at Jurf al-Nasr, but only the KH-affiliated report described concrete movement while the Ashab al-Kahf-owned channel relayed another party’s conditional threat.
