Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Turkiye have expressed a shared determination to “immediately translate” their commitments under the Makkah Defence Alliance into effective military cooperation, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said on Saturday.

The commitment was made at a meeting of Chief of Defence Forces (CDF) and Chief of Army Staff (COAS) Field Marshal Asim Munir and the chiefs of general staff of Saudi Arabia and Turkiye in Riyadh on Friday.

The meeting took place against the backdrop of heightened security concerns in the kingdom, with the Houthis and the Yemeni government engaged in renewed fighting. The Houthis have declared a maritime blockade targeting Saudi Arabia and attacked ships in the Red Sea, while also carrying out attacks in Saudi Arabia in recent weeks.

Earlier, the Foreign Office (FO) had said the three countries were considering a meeting of their military chiefs to discuss ways to assist Riyadh under the Makkah Defence Alliance.

According to the ISPR, the participants discussed measures to advance cooperation among their armed forces, including enhanced intelligence sharing, military coordination and integration of capabilities.

The measures would help strengthen deterrence and collective defence, the military’s media wing said.

The participants also reviewed the security situation and threats facing Saudi Arabia and strongly “resented” attacks targeting the holy city of Makkah as well as civilian and economic infrastructure.

They appreciated the vigilance and professionalism of the Saudi armed forces in ensuring the safety of the people and security of the kingdom, according to the ISPR.

The military chiefs further affirmed their commitment to collective defence, which, the ISPR said, demonstrated the resolve of the three countries to defend Saudi Arabia’s security, sovereignty and territorial integrity.

The ISPR added that the Riyadh meeting reflected the strength of the defence partnership among Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Turkiye, as well as their shared determination to implement the commitments under the tripartite defence agreement.

The participants also commended the longstanding relations and mutual trust between the three countries and their armed forces.

Finally they get something thats an upgrade over those Toyota trucks. Seeing Soldiers in the back of a Toyota Truck made it look like a glorified militia.

They should get license production and produce it in Pakistan.

Can someone explain why the hell our boys did not carry out this operation the moment they were kidnapped?? WTH were we waiting for!!?? Why are our peoples lives not important enough for our forces!! Damn them for not doing this. The Americans went out of their way to save one captain and killed the pirates. Hell, even South Korea has done it and Indians. But we could not. Shame on navy, army and government. Only our air force has the balls the rest our resting on them since our independence. Shame on every officer and government official that could not make a decision regarding this.
Infact I am the idiot to think they should/would care. If they still make our boys roam around in pickups in war zones while they roam around in bullet proof merc's and land cruisers in the capital city!!! what can u expect from them. Bastards!! The fact that some died and got injured is what's pissing me off. How the hell could they have let Somali police handle this. You bastards 'are responsible for our safety and you can't even do your job against some sandle wearing mofos. Shame on you!!!!

Sorry for the language but i feel for the family members who lost their loved ones especially considering we talk a lot about our army and their expertise. Where the hell was it when we need it the most. This is what you get trained and paid for. Do your damn duty of protecting us where ever the hell we are!! Quick to save the rich bloody Arabs but don't care about your own citizens. You pricks!!

And before anyone says its the governments decison, yes we know, but if the army or navy had said we can do it and it being Somalia I dont think they would have refused!!
