Saudi Arabia has turned to four allies—France, Britain, Pakistan, and Egypt—for missile defense support as Houthi attacks continue to strain its air defenses. The kingdom is facing a shortage of interceptors, with U.S. Supplies also dwindling despite a major defense deal. This move comes as the United Nations Security Council condemned the Houthi attacks, reaffirming Saudi Arabia’s right to self-defense. Meanwhile, Pakistan has vowed to defend Saudi Arabia “to any extent,” with its defense chief emphasizing unconditional support. In response to the ongoing crisis, thousands of citizens in Sanaa have taken to the streets in support of the Houthis, while the U.S. Extends sanctions on Iran. The situation highlights the growing regional tensions and the urgent need for international cooperation in ensuring security.
