Pakistan Defense Minister Pledges 'Whatever Means' to Defend Saudi Arabia from Houthi Attacks

Defense Minister Khawaja Asif said Sep 29 that Pakistan is bound by the pact to defend Saudi Arabia with whatever means are at its disposal, whether the threat comes from the Houthis, a state or any other group. He declined to say whether Pakistani forces had already joined airstrikes, and no joint combat deployment or specific operational measures were announced.
