Pakistan PM warns Houthi attacks on Mecca are 'red line' at UN

Pakistani PM Shehbaz Sharif declared at the UN that further Houthi missile attacks on Mecca would constitute a 'red line' for Islamabad, signaling potential escalation in Pakistan's posture. The statement follows a defense agreement with Saudi Arabia and Turkey last month, and comes amid Pakistan's ties with Iran, which backs the Houthis. The threat implies possible Pakistani military involvement if attacks continue, though no concrete action has been announced.
