## Prediction

Within 7 days, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan are likely to formalize at least an initial framework for coordinated military support against the Houthis, such as joint operation planning cells, training commitments, or basing access agreements. This will rewire regional security alignments, with an emerging Sunni axis cutting across traditional US‑centric arrangements and implicitly confronting Iran’s network. The alliance will also serve domestic political narratives in all three states, portraying a defense of holy sites and vital energy infrastructure. Confirmation would be a trilateral communiqué, defense MoUs, or media‑leaked planning documents; denial would be domestic political backlash in Turkey or Pakistan forcing a walk‑back.

## Drivers

- Repeated reports of Saudi requests for Pakistani and Turkish military action against Houthis
- Turkish foreign minister calling Mecca Alliance ‘game‑changing’
- Houthi attacks on Riyadh airport and Aramco raising Saudi demand for partners
- Multipolar trend of Gulf and regional actors rebalancing away from exclusive US security reliance
