Pakistan warns Iran to rein in Houthis as Saudi Arabia strikes back
Pakistan warned Iran to control the Houthis after rebel attacks on Saudi Arabia ignited fires at oil facilities and wounded dozens of people. The warning carries weight because Pakistan is bound by a defense pact with Saudi Arabia and Turkey, the Mecca Joint Defense Agreement, which was established in August. Saudi-backed forces responded with dozens of airstrikes overnight across four Yemeni provinces.
