Iraq closes 71 fake PMF offices; no faction answer in window

WHAT HAPPENED

Press reports this morning said Iraqi authorities shut 71 offices falsely operating under Popular Mobilization Forces branding and banned drone flights without authorisation, with police closing two such offices in Baghdad. Two separate outlets carried the enforcement action, which is why it stands at credible for having occurred as reported; neither report identifies who ran the offices or which faction, if any, they were attached to. In the collected material no tracked faction channel addressed the closures, while KSS-affiliated iNEWS spent the same hours on the PMF law and Fallujah land.

WHY IT MATTERS

A state action that names PMF branding as something to be policed, and puts drone flights under permit, sets up a jurisdictional question the factions have not yet answered in public.
