In a report published on 30 September, DPA attributed to Kataib Hezbollah a threat to overthrow Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi’s government “by all means” if it acted against the “interests of the people.” DPA also reported a threat to shoot down aircraft described as hostile in Iraqi airspace. This is press attribution of a factional statement, rather than a statement published on a Kataib Hezbollah channel here.

“The militia said it would aim to overthrow the government of Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi “by all means” if it acted against the “interests of the people.””
The militia said it would aim to overthrow the government of Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi "by all means" if it acted against the "interests of the people."
The distinction preserves two different levels of attribution: a press-reported Kataib Hezbollah threat and a warning published directly by an affiliated channel.
