\u25aa\ufe0f NYT above referred story attributing employment of PAF aircraft against Houthis is fake and fabricated. International Media houses are again asked to avoid speculative reporting with regards to employment of Pakistan\u2019s Military Forces under Makkah Joint Defence Agreement.<\/p>\n

\u25aa\ufe0f Details of any employment, if necessary will be given by concerned authorities.<\/p>\n

The Ministry of Information also urged international media to avoid speculation about the possible deployment of Pakistani forces under the Mecca Joint Defence Pact.<\/p>\n

The ministry said that if any deployment of Pakistan\u2019s armed forces becomes necessary, details would be provided by the relevant authorities.<\/p>\n

It is to be mentioned here that a US official and a Syrian defence official said that Damascus may deploy troops to help Saudi Arabia fight Yemen\u2019s Houthis, as the Iran-aligned group steps up its missile and drone attacks on the kingdom, killing three people at Saudi \u200bairports this week.<\/p>\n

The possible entry of Syrian forces into the battle, an overspill of the US-Iran conflict, shows how Yemen\u2019s reignited civil war has added new chaos \u200cto a region already aflame, and risks drawing regional states into gruelling mountain fighting.<\/p>\n

A succession of loud booms was heard in Riyadh on Thursday morning which Reuters could not identify. There \u200bwas no immediate official comment and no public early warning alerts, although some diplomats said they had received warnings, and some schools in Riyadh warned parents of shelter-in-place orders.<\/p>\n

Yemen\u2019s Houthi group said on Thursday it had attacked King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh with a ballistic missile. The \u2060Saudi government media office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
