Yemen Close to War End

Yemeni army is coming close to ending the Zaidi Shiite fighting in the rugged mountains of the north, the government spokesman said on Tuesday, 10 weeks into its campaign.

“The armed forces are taking calculated moves, and a final end to these confrontations will come soon,” said Information Minister Hassan Al-Lawzi, AFP reported.
