Watan TV (Badr Organization — affiliated/aligned media) posted this morning that al-Dhahabi told the channel political forces had objected to involving the Counter Terrorism Service in the al-Fajr campaign and informed al-Zaydi, and three minutes earlier carried him urging political forces, armed factions and the Popular Mobilization to support the al-Zaydi government, with a reference to al-Julani and his group at the border. Two hours before, the same channel reported the Supreme Judicial Council chief Faiq Zaidan receiving the new Counter Terrorism Service chief, Lieutenant General Zaid Hushi, to congratulate him on assuming his post. The objectors are not identified and the positions are the interviewee's, not a Badr statement.

The Counter Terrorism Service is a prime ministerial instrument, and a dispute over its use in a named campaign — aired alongside its new chief's judiciary reception — puts the boundary between faction influence and a state security service into public contention.
