> Yemen’s military said Monday it would launch a broad campaign of strikes against Iran-backed Houthi targets in an effort to reclaim territory lost during a Houthi offensive in September. UN figures say the offensive killed hundreds of combatants on both sides and has become the most active front in the wider Middle East war.
