🤡 — Pakistan is trying to avoid being drawn into the Saudi–Houthi conflict despite its defense commitments to Riyadh, while also seeking to preserve its relations with Iran.

"Pakistan is trying to keep a low profile in the Saudi-Houthi conflict because Pakistan's own stakes are high. It does not want to spoil relations with Iran," a Pakistani official said.

Islamabad has conveyed Saudi warnings to Tehran to restrain the Houthis while simultaneously pushing for a diplomatic solution.

Pakistan says no military response is currently under discussion.

For now, Pakistani sources say any involvement would be limited to defending Saudi territory, rather than sending troops into Yemen or participating in retaliatory strikes.
