Clashes erupted between two factions in the Houthi militia in the border region of al-Oud in the Ibb governorate and the border with al-Dhale’, leaving dead and injured, according to local sources for Newsyemen.
The sources said that clashes erupted between the Houthis and the local (Al-Houthis) in al-Oud, northwest of al-Dhale', during which several people were killed and wounded on both sides.
This is not the first time, as it was preceded by rounds of inter-infighting within the struggle of wings and influence and around the major interests and royalties imposed on cars, cargo carriers and Qat sellers or between the Houthis coming from Saada, Amran and Sana'a, and the local people in Al-Oud, al-Fakher, Hajar and al-Hasha, or with other groups from the wilderness and different regions In Ibb.
It was not clear the direct causes of the recent fighting between the militia groups.
However, the sources said, armed confrontations broke out between a group led by Abu Qais Al-Marani, from Saada Governorate, and another led by Ali Al-Shami, known as "Abi Sufyan," from the Al-Saddah district in Ibb governorate
Militias have increasingly relied on mobilization and recruitment to fronts from the people and citizens of the lands and localities and rural towns and used them mostly as war fuel and used others, especially destinations, for security and intelligence purposes against families and farmers or as eyes and in field monitoring missions.
The rounds of fighting erupted against the background of the racist view of the Houthi leaders and groups coming from the north of the north, or who consider themselves to be masters, towards and against the lower-ranking conversations (tribes) according to the discriminatory and class-dynastic traditions of the Houthi-militia priestly militia.
