KSS-linked outlet relays call to answer aggression in kind

iNEWS relayed Khafaji saying "aggression must be answered in kind" and that no committees have been formed over Gulf states' allegations that they were bombarded from Iraq

WHAT HAPPENED

iNEWS (KSS — affiliated/aligned media) posted an urgent graphic this morning quoting Khafaji: "aggression must be answered in kind, and up to this moment no committees have been formed over the Gulf states' allegations of being bombarded from Iraq" (يجب رد الاعتداء بالمثل وحتى اللحظة لم تشكل لجان بادعاءات دول الخليج بقصفهم من العراق). The statement refers to Gulf accusations that strikes against them originated from Iraqi territory, describes those accusations as allegations (ادعاءات), and faults the absence of investigative committees. The position belongs to the quoted speaker, relayed by a KSS-affiliated outlet; no KSS armed-group channel statement on the matter appears in the collected window, and no Iraqi militia claim of the strikes the Gulf states allege is on record here.

WATCH

Watch: a claim of strikes on Gulf targets under a named Islamic Resistance in Iraq or front brand; an Iraqi government announcement forming an investigative committee; a KSS official armed-group or leader-channel statement adopting or dropping the "answer in kind" formula; peer factions taking the opposite position and endorsing an investigation — any of these moves this file.
