In September 2025, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan signed a Strategic Mutual Defence Agreement (SMDA) in Riyadh.
Under the pact, any aggression against either country would be considered an attack on both.
The Pakistani statement comes hours after Iran attacked a Saudi petrochemical complex in Jubail in response to Israeli strikes on its petrochemical sites, reported Iranian Fars news agency.
Iran has vowed to attack the entire Gulf region and American assets if the US attacks its critical infrastructure.
