Badr channel pushes PMF restructuring law as institutional route

WHAT HAPPENED

Watan TV (Badr Organization — affiliated) posted on the evening of 18 August that al-Dulaimi called the Popular Mobilization Forces an official military institution and said a law restructuring the PMF will be enacted for it, under the programme tag #No_Immunity. The post gives no legislative text, sponsor list or timetable. It is a single statement on one aligned channel, hence the lower rung.

WHY IT MATTERS

A restructuring law is the mechanism by which armed strength converts into permanent state establishment, so its provisions on command authority and weapons custody determine what any "weapons monopoly" would actually cover.
