ISLAMABAD: Pakistan’s foreign office said on Monday the country “strongly” condemned recent missile and drone attacks towards Saudi Arabia by Houthi militia.
“Pakistan appreciates the successful interception of the missile and drone, which prevented the loss of innocent lives,” the foreign office said in a statement.
Pakistan said it called for the immediate cessation of such attacks, and reiterated its “full support and solidarity with Saudi Arabia against any threats to its security and territorial integrity.”
Yemen’s Houthis have in recent years launched hundreds of missiles and drones across the border into Saudi Arabia, mostly at bordering military and civilian targets, but also at the capital.

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan on Sunday warned its citizens in the Middle East and Arabian Gulf states to exercise caution, avoid travel and strictly follow official adviseries, amid escalating tensions following the killing of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in US–Israeli strikes.
Iranian state media reported that the 86-year-old was killed in an airstrike targeting his compound in downtown Tehran. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard warned of “a severe, decisive and regret-inducing punishment” coming over Khamenei’s killing.
Israel and Iran traded new attacks Sunday, after Tehran hit both the Dubai International Airport — the world’s busiest for international traffic — and Kuwait’s main airport during its retaliatory strikes one day earlier.
As Iran’s army announced strikes targeting US bases in the Gulf and Iraqi Kurdistan, Trump threatened to unleash “force that has never been seen before” and urged Iran’s people to rise up and seize power.
“In view of the evolving regional situation, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has activated its Crisis Management Unit (CMU) to closely monitor developments and extend all necessary assistance,” the Pakistani foreign office said.
“All Pakistani nationals residing in the Gulf region are strongly advised to exercise utmost caution, remain indoors where possible, avoid unnecessary travel, and strictly adhere to the instructions and adviseries issued by the respective host governments.”
It said the CMU, which is active around the clock, could be reached for information or emergency assistance at +92-51-9207887.
