multifront

Several battle lines

Multifront describes something occurring on or involving multiple fronts simultaneously.

The word appears most often in military contexts—a multifront war requires defending against attacks from different directions or theaters.

The meaning extends to any situation requiring attention in several areas at once: a multifront battle against misinformation, multifront negotiations.
