Pro-Iran armed group supporters in Iraq attacked the offices of the Saudi TV channel MBC in Baghdad after the broadcaster aired a report labeling Iran-backed factions such as Hamas and Hezbollah as 'terrorists.' Between 400 and 500 individuals participated in the attack, damaging electronic equipment and setting part of the building on fire, though the fire was later extinguished by police forces. The incident led to a significant police presence in the area, with no immediate arrests reported. The controversial MBC report, which mentioned figures like Osama bin Laden and Hamas chief Yahya Sinwar, was perceived as insulting by the pro-Iran faction. Iraqi lawmaker Mustafa Sanad criticized the report for defaming resistance leaders and called for the revocation of MBC's license in Iraq. The attack underscores the tension between Saudi media and pro-Iran groups over regional portrayals of militant leaders.
