Saudi Arabia has launched air strikes and military troops on Houthi rebels units in Yemen. Pakistan has also been requested by Saudi Arabia to take part in the operation. The capital Sana’a is now roaring with sounds of warplanes and bombardments. It is said that the Saudi’s intervention in Yemen might flare up anarchy and divide the Muslim world into Shia-ruled Muslim world and Sunni-ruled Muslim world. Above all, the ongoing crisis in Yemen has put the lives of hundreds of Pakistanis living there in jeopardy. The government should take prompt steps to secure the evacuation of Pakistanis from Yemen and bring them back home safely.
