Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.
[Regnum] Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud and Pakistani Prime Minister Muhammad Shahbaz Sharif signed a strategic mutual defense agreement. This was reported on September 17 by the Saudi state news agency SPA.

The document was signed during the visit of the head of the Pakistani government to Riyadh.

"The agreement aims to develop various aspects of defense cooperation between the two countries and strengthen mutual deterrence against any aggression. The agreement stipulates that any aggression against one of the two countries will be considered aggression against both countries," the statement, quoted by the agency, reads.

On September 9, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates condemned the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) strikes on Doha. Bin Salman offered Qatar security assistance.
One wonders what each said privately to Bibi afterward, and even what each said to the other in Arabic…
The UAE called the Israeli attacks a flagrant violation of Qatar's sovereignty and a grave insult to international law and the United Nations Charter, as well as an irresponsible escalation that threatens regional and global security.
