Pakistan Expresses Solidarity with Saudi Arabia After Houthi Attacks Impact Energy Supplies
Pakistan expressed full solidarity with Saudi Arabia following recent Houthi attacks that injured civilians and damaged infrastructure, including a mosque. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif conveyed support to Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, condemning the strikes as threats to regional peace and global energy supplies.

Pakistan affirmed ongoing efforts to reduce tensions and promote stability in West Asia, with both leaders agreeing to maintain close contact.
