A special football match was organized in Loralai to mark the historic trilateral defense agreement signed in Makkah between Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and Turkiye. The event was held at the Boys College Football Ground, with teams from Quetta and Loralai participating, under the directives of Deputy Commissioner Captain (R) Muhammad Haseeb Shuja, according to the Daily Times.

The Makkah Joint Defence Agreement aims to strengthen collective deterrence and empowers its signatory states to treat an attack against one of them as an attack against all of them. Deputy Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar received phone calls from Kuwait’s Foreign Minister Sheikh Jarrah Jaber Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah and Canadian Foreign Minister Anita Anand, where they discussed the agreement and regional situation, including occupied East Jerusalem, as reported by Dawn.

The agreement was signed on Friday in Makkah. Dar shared the essence of the agreement and the joint resolve of the three countries to contribute to regional peace, stability, and security with the Canadian Foreign Minister.
