On 10 September, commander-in-chief spokesman Sabah al-Numan said weapons would not be permitted outside state control, that no fixed deadline had been set with factions for organizing weapons, and that dialogue would be resolved rapidly after the coalition mission ends on 30 September. 964media separately quoted Nujaba Political Council head Ali al-Asadi saying the Coordination Framework had agreed to regulate weapons after an earlier proposal called for restricting them.
