Syria confirms sending troops to Saudi Arabia amid battle against Houthis

Syrian officials deny reports Damascus is sending troops to Yemen, but Syrian security integration appears under way

Pakistan strongly condemned the attempted Houthi attack on a Saudi Aramco administrative building in Riyadh on Monday, expressing deep concern over the targeting of civilian facilities. The attack, which damaged the corporate tower in Riyadh's King Abdullah Financial District, caused limited damage with no reported injuries or fatalities.

Saudi Aramco facilities have been under increasing Houthi assault, escalating tensions between the group and the kingdom. The Foreign Office (FO) of Pakistan denounced the Houthi attack, highlighting the reckless disregard for human life and regional security. Pakistan called on the Houthis to cease all attacks against Saudi Arabia immediately and unconditionally, reaffirming its full support for the kingdom's security, sovereignty, and territorial integrity.

The security of Saudi Arabia is of paramount importance to Pakistan, and the country remains steadfast in its commitment to safeguarding its well-being.
