🇾🇪🇵🇰🇹🇷🇸🇦 Yemen's Houthis are now threatening to directly strike Pakistan and Turkey, with senior official Mohammed al-Bukhaiti warning: "We will strike them with an iron fist. Just as we are disciplining Saudi Arabia today, we will discipline them too."

Al-Bukhaiti, a member of the Houthi political bureau, told Iraqi channel iNews that any Turkish or Pakistani intervention in support of Saudi Arabia would carry a "heavy price". He dismissed the Mecca Joint Defense Agreement — signed in August by Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan — as largely "symbolic".

"Any intervention on the side of the Saudi enemy will cost them dearly, just as it cost the United States and Britain dearly — and they are far stronger than Turkey and Pakistan," he said.
