Military leaders from Saudi Arabia, Turkiye and Pakistan are moving to hold urgent talks to deepen defence coordination as Houthi attacks and fighting in Yemen intensify. The planned meeting reflects growing concern among regional powers about the spillover of the conflict. This coordination effort comes as Yemen's Houthis have claimed successful attacks on Saudi Aramco facilities, with oil prices jumping to over $106 per barrel (Brent crude) following the strikes, underscoring the economic stakes and escalating threat perception driving the military alignment.
