Egypt parliament convenes after Sisi's pledge to support Saudi
The article relates to Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi's intention to call on the Parliament to grant a mandate to defend Saudi Arabia amid the military escalation it faces from the Houthis, who are supported by Iran. Sisi affirmed that Egypt is prepared to take measures to protect the Kingdom, and that any military action requires parliamentary approval, which led the Parliament to hold an emergency session in response to this call. This comes in the context of escalating Houthi attacks on Saudi Arabia using aircraft and missiles, as well as their expanding control in Yemen and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, which holds strategic importance for both Egypt and Saudi Arabia. Sisi emphasized Egypt's support for Saudi Arabia’s security and stability, along with strengthening regional defense cooperation.
