On September 17, Pakistan and Saudi Arabia signed a landmark Strategic Mutual Defense Agreement in Riyadh, sparking alarm in India and Israel. The pact includes a NATO-style Article 5 clause, declaring that any attack on one nation will be treated as an attack on both. This raises the stakes for South Asia and the Middle East, as the deal indirectly extends Saudi Arabia’s reach to Pakistan’s nuclear shield. With Israel striking in Qatar and Iran watching closely, the pact could destabilize the fragile regional balance.
