The Gulf country Saudi Arabia is currently facing increasingly violent attacks by the Houthis in Yemen. As an ally in the joint defense agreement with Saudi Arabia, Pakistan's reaction has attracted attention from the outside world. In an interview with the media on the 17th, a Palestinian military spokesman stated that the Palestinian side will “spare no effort” to support Saudi Arabia, including helping to defend the religious sites of Mecca and Medina in Saudi Arabia. The Houthis in Yemen launched a new wave of attacks against Saudi Arabia this week. The Saudi side accuses the other party of trying to attack Mecca with drones, which were intercepted and destroyed by Saudi air defense forces. The OIC Secretariat later voiced its condemnation of the Houthis. The Houthis side denied attacking Mecca, accusing Saudi Arabia of “lying.” Speaking to Saudi Arabia's “Arab News” daily, Pakistani military spokesman Ahmed Sharif Chowdhury said that Pakistan will support Saudi Arabia “diplomatically and in terms of practical action” and “will spare no effort to protect the security of the Holy Land and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.”
