America-Israel attacks on Iran continue. In retaliation, Tehran is attacking those Gulf countries where American military establishments are present. However, in these attacks a hotel in Dubai was targeted and the latest case is from Saudi Arabia, where oil fields are also being targeted.
Meanwhile, Saudi Defense Minister Khalid bin Salman met Pakistan Army Chief and Field Marshal Asim Munir in Riyadh. His statement is being seen as an indication whether now Pakistan will also join the war with Iran. During this, measures to stop Iran’s attacks were discussed under the military agreement between the two countries.

We discussed Iran’s attacks on the Kingdom and the measures needed to stop them. This discussion was done under our joint strategic defense agreement.

Iran has now intensified attacks on Saudi Arabia. The Saudi Defense Ministry said that it shot down 6 drones, whose target was Shayba Oil Field. This oil field is a huge oil field located near the border of UAE. According to reports, 16 drones were fired in 4 separate attacks. These drones were shot down in the desert.
There was an attack in 2019 also
Let us tell you that this is the first time that Saudi Arabia’s oil fields have been directly targeted. Earlier in 2019, the same oil field was attacked but then this attack was carried out by the Iranian-backed Houthi rebels present in Yemen. Now Iran itself is carrying out direct attacks, due to which the danger has increased further. However, the Defense Ministry has not yet told where the drone that was shot down towards the oil field came from.
what did pakistan say
Pakistan has indicated that it is taking its defense agreement with Saudi seriously. Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar also made a revelation in the Parliament. He said that Pakistan’s diplomacy is working behind the reason why Iran did not attack Saudi Arabia recently or gave very little reaction.
