Snippet:
The Iranian-backed Houthis attacked Saudi Arabia this week. This is being seen as the first test of the new alliance that Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Pakistan entered in August. The "Mecca Joint Defense Agreement" was intended to strengthen collective deterrence against any act of aggression, according to reports in early August, when it was first announced.
