Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif strongly condemned recent Houthi attacks on Saudi oil tankers in the Red Sea during a phone call with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. Sharif called the attacks unacceptable, a violation of international law, and a threat to regional stability and freedom of navigation. He reaffirmed Pakistan’s unwavering solidarity with Saudi Arabia, stating the nation’s firm support for the kingdom's leadership. Both leaders agreed on the importance of close cooperation to maintain peace, security, and uninterrupted maritime commerce in the Red Sea, Strait of Hormuz, and the broader region. The Saudi Crown Prince expressed gratitude for Pakistan’s consistent support and the strong fraternal relationship between the two nations. This conversation follows Pakistan’s earlier warning that it would defend its maritime interests if targeted by hostile acts in the Red Sea.
