Pakistan’s prime minister spoke with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to reaffirm Islamabad’s steadfast solidarity with Riyadh amid Iranian attacks and ongoing regional hostilities.

The talks underscored a shared aim of regional peace and Pakistan’s willingness to mediate to de-escalate tensions, with emphasis on working with other countries.

Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry condemned the attacks as a violation of Saudi sovereignty and a dangerous escalation, while the military leadership called for de-escalation at the 274th Corps Commanders’ Conference.

Meanwhile, social media reaction questioned Sharif’s stance, with critics saying he did not condemn U.S. attacks on Iran or President Trump’s rhetoric and some alleging he is a U.S. puppet.

Saudi authorities had not released detailed information on damage or casualties from the attack at the time of reporting.

A SABIC petrochemical complex in Jubail was affected by the attacks, with fires and worker evacuations indicating notable infrastructure impact.

Broader coverage noted U.S.-Pakistan-Iran dynamics, including reports on Pakistan’s engagement with the Trump administration and transactional foreign policy signals.

Iran has repeatedly targeted Saudi Arabia since the early phase of the US-Israel conflict with Iran, even as Saudi Arabia maintains it will not permit territory to be used for attacks on Iran.

Pakistan abstained from a U.N. Security Council vote on a Bahrain-led resolution about security of navigation through the Strait of Hormuz; the vote tally included eleven in favor, with Russia and China vetoing and Colombia abstaining.

The public and military statements reflect coordinated messaging to uphold regional stability and deter further aggression.

Pakistan signaled it would stand with Saudi Arabia under the bilateral defense pact if the Iran-Iraq conflict escalates, recalling an agreement that an attack on one is an attack on both.

Earlier in the year, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia formalized a Strategic Mutual Defence Agreement in Riyadh, reinforcing the stance that an attack on either nation could be treated as aggression against both.
