Two channels post identical Akram "won't give up his weapon" line

WHAT HAPPENED

At 15:06:26 on 19 August, Jehad Brothers Team (Nujaba — affiliated) posted the single line "Sheikh Akram does not give up his weapon" over video of a dense crowd waving red-and-yellow and yellow flags before an unfinished concrete building. Nineteen seconds later, Shabab al-Islam (Ashab al-Kahf — owned/non-official) carried the same wording over what visual review describes as the same scene. Neither post names a disarmament demand, a law, a state body or a date; Akram al-Kaabi's own channel is not among the sources carrying it.

In posting order. Translated by the desk, published as evidence — not endorsement. A channel name opens the message where it was posted.
WHY IT MATTERS

The line places retention of weapons in Akram al-Kaabi's own name at a moment when the same Nujaba-affiliated channel is arguing the legality of resistance weapons, giving the refusal-to-disarm position a personal rallying formulation rather than an institutional one.
