Fierce clashes between Huthi Shiite rebels and gunmen from the powerful Hashid tribe killed at least 60 people in northern Yemen, tribal sources told AFP.
The clashes in Omran province yesterday killed 40 Huthi rebels and their allies and left 20 dead in the ranks of the Hashid tribe, the sources said.
The fighting in Omran dates back to January 5 when Huthis tried to seize Hashid strongholds.
