Top Free News — Iraq

The Top Free News chart in Iraq saw significant reshuffling, led by Rudaw's dramatic surge of +45 positions to claim #17, alongside other notable risers including وظائف - أي وظيفة (+17 to #15), Kurdsat (+16 to #11), and أخبار المشهد - Al Mashhad (+13 to #10). The top of the chart remained stable, with X and Reddit holding the #1 and #2 spots and Substack moving up one to #3 at the expense of Alaraby Plus, which slipped to #4. The biggest decliners were Podcast Player App - Castbox (-8 to #20), Fizz (-5 to #19), and نبض Nabd (-4 to #14), though none dropped out of the top 20. No new entries appeared, and the apps that exited the chart had all been ranked in the 79–88 range and had no direct impact on the top 20.
