Imminent threat alert issue 26.2

I have an “imminent threat alert” that I can’t get rid of on the face of my iPhone promax17. I’m running 26.2 latest version. I’ve tried disabling the govt warnings, resetting my phone, etc with not luck. Restarting the phone has not helped. The warnings now three days old. When does it go away?

Never mind, scrolling left got rid of it
