Sana’a saw a quiet day Saturday after last night’s clashes that erupted between the republican guards and Hashed tribes loyal to the Ahmar family.

The clashes resulted in the injury of seven civilians and one tribesman. No death casualties were reported.

Light clashes were reported Saturday in Hasaba, but nothing compared to Friday’s clashes that forced thousands of residents to evacuate their homes fearing that fighting was on the verge of taking place.

The areas surrounding Hasaba, where Hashed’s tribal leader lives, are still tense and hundreds of tribesmen and government soldiers continue to be stationed there.

Government is blaming the Ahmar tribes for fueling the fights calling on the tribes to seek peace during the fasting month of Ramadan.

“We need to solve our problems through dialogue not fighting,” said Abdu Ganadi, the government spokesperson.

Meanwhile, head of security at Sana’a International Airport said that the airport is running as usual.

Yesterday, six flights were redirected to Aden after clashes intensified in Sana’a.

Yemen has been going through unrest since January when pro democracy youth demanded the ouster of President Saleh’s regime.
