（单词翻译:单击）

The Saudi-led coalition¹ has ended its air campaign against the Houthi rebels in Yemen, citing success in achieving its military goals.

由沙特领导的联军结束了对也门胡塞叛军的空袭行动，声称其军事目标已经达到。

The Saudi Defense² Ministry³ says the air raids have destroyed numerous Houthi heavy weapon and missile sites.

The campaign, dubbed⁴ "Decisive Storm" began on March 26.

However, it has largely failed to halt the rebels' advance.

A new operation called "Restoring Hope" is now being launched, with a focus on a political solution in Yemen.

Yemen has been in chaos⁵ since the Houthi rebels took control of the capital, Sanaa, in January.

This eventually forced President Abd-Rabbo Mansour Hadi to flee abroad at the end of March.
