  "summary": "Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif has declared attacks on the holy city of Mecca a \"red line\" that must never be crossed, condemning the recent drone attacks by the Houthis against Saudi Arabia. At a UN gathering in New York City, Sharif strongly condemned the attempted drone attack on Mecca al-Mukarramah, expressing outrage and emphasizing that any threat to the safety and sanctity of the city is unacceptable. The Saudi Arabian government accused the Houthis of targeting Mecca for the first time since 2017, an accusation denied by the Houthis.",
