Saudi, Pakistan, Turkey Officials to Meet Iran in Tehran for Regional Security TalksPreviousNext

Senior officials from Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Turkey are set to meet Iranian leaders in Tehran to discuss regional security and coordination. The meeting, involving Saudi Defence Minister Khalid bin Salman, Pakistan Army Chief Asim Munir, and Turkey's intelligence chief Ibrahim Kalin, follows escalating Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia and aims to promote de-escalation amid broader regional tensions. The talks mark the first high-level engagement between Iran and the Mecca Pact members since the pact's signing in August, focusing on collective security and diplomatic efforts.
