More information has come out regarding Pakistan’s involvement in the ongoing escalation in Yemen between the Houthis, Saudi Arabia, and the Internationally Recognized Government. According to Reuters, citing sources from all three countries, Pakistan has relayed to Iran Saudi warnings to pressure the Houthis to deescalate, with the hopes that the possibility of the trilateral Mecca Joint Defense Agreement being triggered might weigh heavily on the minds of Iranian decision-makers. This comes following reports from earlier today that Pakistan was mulling strikes against the Houthis at the request of Saudi Arabia.
