Saudi, Turkish and Pakistani Military Chiefs Plan Urgent Talks Amid Yemen Fighting

Military chiefs from Saudi Arabia, Turkiye and Pakistan are planning urgent talks as they move to deepen defense coordination amid intensifying fighting in Yemen, according to Al Jazeera.

The report links the push for closer coordination to escalating Houthi attacks and the broader conflict in Yemen, though it does not specify the agenda or timing of the planned talks in detail.

Regional Security Concerns

The three countries have varying degrees of involvement in the Yemen conflict and the broader regional security landscape, with Saudi Arabia in particular having led a coalition involved in the Yemen war for years.

Al Jazeera's report does not specify whether other regional or international parties are expected to join the discussions, nor does it detail what specific defense measures might result from the coordination.
