Pakistan has warned that an attack on any member of the newly formed Makkah Defence Alliance would be treated as an attack on all three nations - Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan. The warning comes after the Houthis, a Yemen-based group aligned with Iran, launched missile and drone strikes on Saudi Arabia, targeting cities and energy infrastructure, resulting in civilian casualties.
The Pakistan Defence Minister, Khawaja Asif, stated that there should be "no ambiguity" about the joint defence agreement signed in Makkah, emphasizing that it is a defensive pact, not one for launching attacks against other states. He reaffirmed Pakistan's commitment to Saudi Arabia under the agreement, but stated that the three nations will only respond collectively if there is aggression against any one member.
The minister cautioned against the escalation of the Yemen conflict beyond its borders, expressing hope that diplomatic efforts would prevent further escalation.
