Pakistan’s Defence Minister, Khawaja Muhammad Asif, announced that the time has come to implement the three-way Mecca defence agreement involving Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey. Speaking in a Wednesday interview with Pakistan's Geo News, Asif reaffirmed Pakistan's commitment to defending Saudi Arabia.
The readiness to activate the pact comes amid an intensification of renewed Houthi attacks targeting the kingdom, which have increased security pressures on the regional allies and accelerated the push to operationalise the joint defence framework.
