Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif strongly condemned the alleged Houthi drone attack attempt targeting the holy city of Mecca during his address at the 81st United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) session in New York on Friday (September 25, 2026).
Sharif declared that protecting the sanctity and security of the Haramain Sharifain remains a red line for Pakistan that must never be crossed. Addressing world leaders, the Prime Minister stated that the news of an attempted strike on Islam's holiest sanctuary outraged Muslims across the globe, adding that "no Muslim could even dare to think of committing such a heinous act." He reaffirmed Islamabad’s historical and unwavering commitment to standing shoulder-to-shoulder with Saudi Arabia in defending its sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity, while calling for de-escalation, diplomacy, and dialogue to maintain stability across the broader Middle East.
