Despite Agreement Yemeni Rebels Clash with Presidential Guard in Sana’a

Yemeni rebels clashed with the Presidential Guard in Sana’a on Saturday despite the signing earlier in the week of a UN-brokered agreement that was supposed to have ended the sectarian violence and restored stability to the Hadi government. Reports from Yemen indicated the fighting broke out when Houthi tribesmen tried to occupy the home of the national security chief. The Houthis had swept down from the north and overtaken much of the capital as it demanded greater say in the government. President Hadi asked them to leave the city after the agreement was signed, but they stayed to “settle scores.”
