Confirmed · Maysan, Iraq (approximate) ·
Reports say an Iraqi judicial authority issued an arrest warrant for the head of Maysan's provincial council, Mustafa Daeer (also rendered Dhair, Duair or al-Mohammadawi), over threats of civil disobedience or road blockades after the closure of the border crossing with Iran. Iran International and VOA attribute the warrant to an Iraqi court, and Tasnim to the Iraqi judiciary after a request from the prime minister's office, while ME Observer links it to his support for protests. Sources give Monday as the day of the warrant, and none gives a time of issue.

Details by origin
Each detail, with the independent origins that reported it. An origin is the outlet or channel where a claim first appeared; reposts count once. A row counts no more independent origins than the event does above; where it lists more, it says so. This counts reports: it is not a measure of accuracy, and it does not change the event's status. "Reports differ" means two origins gave values that cannot both be true; it is about that detail, not about whether the incident happened.
