WHAT HAPPENED

On 18 September, Qasim al-Araji, security adviser to Prime Minister Ali al-Zaidi, said no fixed deadline had been set for the committee bringing weapons under state control. Sabereen News (KH — affiliated), Al-Ghadeer TV (Badr Organization — official) and iNEWS (KSS — affiliated) relayed the denial, while The New Region reported al-Araji’s warning that anyone illegally carrying weapons after the committee finishes would be treated as a terrorist.

    “Everything recently circulated on social media about setting a deadline for the weapons-control committee’s work is entirely incorrect; there is no specified period for bringing weapons under state control.”

    كل ما تم تداوله مؤخرًا عبر مواقع التواصل الاجتماعي بشأن حدوث تحديد سقف زمني لأعمال لجنة حصر السلاح هو أمر غير صحيح إطلاقًا؛ إذ لا توجد أي مدة محددة لحصر السلاح بيد الدولة

    “Prime ministerial security adviser Qasim al-Araji: We deny setting a deadline for the weapons-control committee’s work; there is no specified period.”

    المستشار الأمني لرئيس الورزاء قاسم الاعرجي: ننفي تحديد سقف زمني لأعمال لجنة حصر السلاح ولا توجد أي مدة محددة

  4. The New Region18 Sept, 19:47

    “There is no specific deadline for consolidating weapons under state control; anyone found illegally carrying weapons after the committee completes its work will be treated as a terrorist.”

    لا توجد مدة محددة لحصر السلاح بيد الدولة... ومن يُضبط حاملاً للسلاح بصورة غير قانونية بعد إكمال اللجنة أعمالها سيُعامل كإرهابي

WHY IT MATTERS

Compared with the deadline reports, al-Araji’s statement leaves the committee’s timetable open while retaining the announced post-committee treatment of illegal weapons carriers as terrorists.
