Saudi-Houthi Crisis LIVE: Pakistan Mulls Airstrikes In Yemen Under Makkah Defense Alliance | N18G

BREAKING DEFENSE INTELLIGENCE: The West Asia conflict has threatened to pull in South Asia's premier nuclear power after Pakistan's Defense Minister Khawaja Asif warned that recent Houthi missile and drone strikes against Saudi Arabia could activate the Makkah Joint Defence Agreement. Signed in August 2026 between Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Türkiye, the trilateral pact includes an explicit collective defense provision declaring that "an attack on one is an attack on all." Following a severe Houthi strike that targeted Saudi energy assets and Abha International Airport—injuring over 70 civilians—Islamabad stated there is "no ambiguity" regarding its commitment to defend Saudi sovereignty. Reports indicate Pakistani military planners are weighing retaliatory air strikes against Houthi command nodes in Saadah, Yemen, marking a major escalation in the regional deterrence landscape. #USIranWar #SaudiArabia #Pakistan #Houthis #MakkahPact #KhawajaAsif #Yemen #DefenseNews #Geopolitics #BreakingNews USA | Donald Trump | South Korea | US South Korea Trade | Trump Tariff Warning | Trade Deal Dispute | Auto Sector Impact | Global Trade Tensions | US Iran tensions | USS Abraham Lincoln | US aircraft carrier Gulf | West Asia crisis | Middle East escalation | Iran protests crackdown | Hezbollah warning | World News | Latest News | Global News | International News | Trending News | Union Budget 2026 | Jammu \Jammu Kashmir Latest News | Breaking News | PM Modi | Farooq Abdullah | Asaduddin Owaisi | Indian Muslim | Congress | BJP | Rahul Gandhi | Iran India Relation | Snowfall In Jammu Kashmir News18 Urdu is one of India’s leading news channel in the Urdu language.
