Houthis Hit Saudi With Missiles; Pakistan, Turkey Military Response Tests Mecca Defence Pact
Four Saudi cities hit within days. Ballistic missiles, drones, burning oil installations, dozens wounded. This is Saudi Arabia's reality as Houthi attacks intensify to their worst level since the US-Israeli war on Iran. And yet, when Saudi, Pakistani and Turkish foreign ministers met on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly, the outcome was institutional talk under the Mecca Pact not military commitment. Pakistan's army chief has been in contact with Iran discussing the situation, but troops on the ground remain a distant prospect. This video examines why Riyadh's allies are offering solidarity instead of sorties, why Pakistan and Turkey have their own reasons to stay cautious, and the difficult trap Saudi Arabia now finds itself in escalate and risk reopening Yemen's war, or hold back and let the Houthis gain leverage.
