  "summary": "Pakistan has called on the Yemeni Houthi militia to cease their \"provocative acts\" in the Red Sea, urging the UN Security Council to take a more decisive stance on the escalating threat to the strategic waterway. The comments come as the UN Security Council held a second discussion on the situation, with the UN Assistant Secretary General Khaled Khiari describing the situation as \"increasingly volatile.\" Pakistan's Permanent Representative to the UN, Ambassador Asim Iftikhar Ahmad, reaffirmed the country's unwavering support for Saudi Arabia's sovereignty, territorial integrity, security, and prosperity, and called for the restoration of navigational rights and freedom in and around the Red Sea and Bab al Mandab.",
