Pakistan Ulema Council Chairman Maulana Tahir Ashrafi has advised Pakistanis in Saudi Arabia to avoid sharing sensitive content online. He urged them not to post pictures, videos or rumours about drone attacks and to follow Saudi laws and official security instructions.

Turkey, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia have agreed to rapidly deploy military forces and capabilities to support Saudi Arabia as it confronts attacks by Iran-backed Houthi rebels. This pledge was made during an emergency meeting of ministers and military commanders from the three countries under the Makkah defence pact, a collective deterrence agreement signed in August.

According to The National UAE and The National Business, Turkey has agreed to deploy troops and air defence systems to Saudi Arabia, with some Turkish officials stating that Ankara has maintained technical teams, air defence systems, and electronic warfare equipment in the kingdom since last year to protect critical infrastructure. Turkey's parliament must approve the pact before President Recep Tayyip Erdogan can ratify it.
