Saudi Arabia is strengthening ties with the UAE and receiving support from Pakistan as it faces Houthi attacks, including a claimed strike on a power station.
Saudi Arabia has sought to mend ties with the United Arab Emirates as it confronts escalating Houthi attacks. The kingdom reportedly turned to the UAE for support amid renewed clashes. Saudi Arabia also provided $60 million in financial aid to Yemen, while the Houthi movement claimed Saudi strikes on Sanaa and other provinces.
The recent escalation follows a period of strained relations between Riyadh and Abu Dhabi over Yemen policy. The kingdom's efforts to regain influence among Yemen's Salafist groups and secure regional alliances, including from Pakistan, underscore the persistent complexities of the conflict. Turkey has condemned Houthi drone attacks targeting Saudi Arabia.
