The Harakat al-Nujaba statement of 29 July 2026 addresses "our direct and inevitable message to the Iraqi government and the official bodies," demanding it expel American bases and headquarters from Iraqi soil, sever all cooperation with Saudi Arabia, "immediately break its silence and not confine itself to statements of denunciation and condemnation which tempt the aggressor and push him to go further," secure advanced air-defence systems, and hold accountable "everyone who caused the nation's sky to be left open to the desires of the killers." The text was carried in full by Al-Ittijah TV (KH — official owned media), Sabereen News (KH — affiliated/aligned media) and Al-Kornet al-Kata'ibi (KSS — affiliated/aligned media). Al-Ghadeer TV (Badr Organization — official owned media), which carried the funeral line the same morning, was not observed carrying the demand list or any comment on the government's handling of the strike.
Watch: an Iraqi government or Ministry of Defence reply to the air-defence and accountability demands; whether Badr Organization or Asaib Ahl al-Haq endorse the demand list or pointedly decline; parliamentary moves on U.S. troop presence citing this statement — any of these moves this file.
