Turkey offers defense support to Saudi Arabia
Turkey has provided Saudi Arabia with defensive and technical support in its efforts to counter the Yemeni Houthi group, which is allied with Iran. This support comes as part of the Mecca Agreement, which Turkey signed with Saudi Arabia and Pakistan last August. The aim of this support is to strengthen the kingdom’s defensive capabilities through intelligence sharing, providing air defense systems, strategic planning assistance, as well as logistical support and drone operations. Although the support remains limited in terms of on-the-ground implementation, Turkey is considering expanding it after completing the ratification procedures for the agreement. This comes at a time of escalating Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia and maritime navigation in the Red Sea, amid new Saudi military operations to regain control of strategic areas near the Bab al-Mandeb Strait.
