Houthis have so far avoided to hit Pakistan related ships and tankers going to and from Saudi Arabia.They have hit Indian related ships but not Pakistan related.Possibly Saudi would prefer to make other two countries join against Yemen campaign at first step.
Pakistan refused to join the Saudi led 2015 Yemen campaign and officially does not recognise Houthis as terror group. Turkiye also does not recognise Houthis as a terror group. The situation did not change much but only a fragile ceasefire that is somewhat broken now and all issues unresolved.
So it would contradict Pakistans previous refusal to join Yemen campaign in 2015. Also all of a sudden recognising houthis as terrorists etc and would again be somewhat illogical for Turkiye and Pakistan as well. So the issue is complicated for Saudi-Yemen conflict and logically the countries wont be involved in this conflict for the sake of Saudis want it or for financial benefits I think/hope
So far Pakistan has no reason to involve herself in war.
In case any strait is closed for Pakistan, Iran may be locked right in SoH because we have seen how easy it is to impose naval blockade on Iran.
SoH is a great weakness of Iran as exposed in current war against US where Iran has no room to maneuver outside this little strait.
