Gunfire erupts in Yemen capital as anti-Saudi alliance frays

A source in Saleh's political party told Reuters that armed Houthi fighters entered the mosque, which was built and named after Yemen's former strongman, and sought to take it over.
"This will increase tensions. There are sporadic clashes going on in the political district in Sanaa," the source told Reuters, speaking on condition of anonymity.

Taha Mutawakil, a Houthi spiritual leader, in a Friday sermon blasted Saleh's rule as "black days" for Yemen and called for the Houthis to declare an economic state of emergency and seize the assets of Saleh-aligned businessmen.

Despite their partnership to fight Saudi-backed Yemeni forces under the internationally recognized government of President Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi, they have frequently sparred for supremacy and their rivalry led to deadly clashes in August.

Iran-backed rebels clash with former ally in Yemen's capital

Violent clashes between rival factions in Yemen's rebel-held capital continued Saturday for the fourth straight day as forces loyal to a former president and Iran-backed Shiite rebels known as Houthis faced off in the streets of Sanaa, signaling disintegration in the rebel alliance at war with a Saudi-led coalition for nearly three years.

Amid the escalating violence, ex-president Ali Abdullah Saleh announced in a televised interview on Saturday with Yemen al-Youm that he is open to dialogue and is willing to open a "new page" to deal with the Saudi coalition after ending its blockade and ceasing fire.
The US-backed Saudi-led coalition has been fighting to defeat the Iran-backed Houthis along with Saleh's forces in Yemen since March 2015. The coalition had also imposed a blockade on the country, allowing occasional humanitarian access, with the aim of reinstating the internationally recognized government of Saleh's successor, Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi.
