Watan TV (Badr Organization — affiliated) posted on 11 August at 15:08 that a member of the Facilities Protection Service had stopped its correspondent from carrying out his media duty covering citizens' suffering on al-Dakhil Street opposite Sadr General Hospital, calling it "a scene that raises questions". Earlier, at 14:34, the same channel reported demands that Wasit deputies move urgently on the Electricity Ministry and central government over power supply. Both rest on this one channel; no state response is in the supplied evidence.
