Ten of 33 watched militia channels focused on Shalamcheh, extending a network move already under way this morning. Sabereen News (KH — affiliated) highlighted stranded citizens, patients’ appeals and the government’s closure decision; Shabab al-Islam (Ashab al-Kahf — owned, non-official) depicted families sleeping on the floor and alleged that Prime Minister Ali Falih al-Zaidi closed the crossing on orders from Tom Barrack and Mohammed bin Salman. Iraq ordered the crossing temporarily closed early Saturday as a precaution after the drone attacks on Saudi Arabia.
