Head of India’s Jamiat Ulama condemns Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia
Arshad Madani, president of Jamiat Ulama-i-Hind, denounced Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia and voiced full solidarity with the Saudi leadership and people.
Turkey's Defence Minister Yasar Guler has stated that the country has no plans to engage in combat with the Houthis under the Mecca Joint Defence Agreement signed with Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. Speaking in a TV interview, Guler emphasized that Turkey does not foresee any clashes with the Houthis and that any military support to Saudi Arabia would primarily aim to strengthen deterrence, as it has done in Qatar.
The agreement, which commits the three countries to regard an armed attack on one as an attack on all, will require legal procedures and parliamentary approval before any assistance is provided.
