The Nobel Peace Prize-winning human rights activist Tawakkol Karman expressed her solidarity with Pakistan against what she described as Riyadh's plots against Islamabad.

“The tension in Saudi-Pakistani relations yields a further evidence that Riyadh resists any potential power in Islamic world,” Mrs. Karman wrote on social media. 

She added that Riyadh deals with such power, be it government, group or individual, as a threat and an enemy and conspires against it, expressing her “solidarity with Pakistan against Riyadh's plots and evil.”
