> UN Yemen envoy Hans Grundberg says Yemen has slid back into “full-scale war” as fighting continues between the Houthis and internationally recognised government forces. He urged political strategies and negotiations. Saudi Arabia and Yemen’s government called for Security Council action; the UN says at least 46 civilians have been killed and more than 130 injured since August.
