Between 19:09 and 19:35 on 21 August, iNEWS (KSS — affiliated) published five successive breaking-news cards from an interview with MP Qusay Abbas, saying the Popular Mobilization Forces law had reached its final stages, that government and parliament agreed to accelerate passage, that the cabinet would probably send the bill to parliament within a week, and that parliament bore responsibility for not passing it in the previous session. The claims rest on a single outlet carrying a single speaker; the earliest card names him only as "Abbas" and the later one as MP Qusay Abbas. No other collected channel carried the line, and no outside coverage of it was collected.

A dated, falsifiable commitment — a bill at parliament within a week — is the rare militia-media claim about state process that can be checked against the parliamentary record.
