Sana'a, NewsYemen:

 The deputy in the Sana’a parliament, Ahmed Saif Hashed, revealed that a quarrel and an exchange of bottles took place between two members of the parliament during its session, which was held, on Saturday, in Sana’a, because of the Minister of Finance in their government, which is not recognized internationally, and it developed into a publicity of the jambiya and sticks before the deputies intervened to resolve  The clash, and Parliament Speaker Yahya Al-Rai adjourned the meeting.

 In the details, Hashed mentioned, in a post on his Twitter account, that Representative Yahya Al-Qadi expressed his anger at Finance Minister Rashid Abu Lahoum's lack of respect for Parliament and his compliance with the interrogation requests in person, according to the members' agreement, and not in the presence of the Undersecretary or his representative.

According to Hashed, this statement from the judge was met with an angry response from Representative Abu Nassar, who responded to him by belittling him and raising the status of the Minister of Finance by saying, "Who are you until the Minister of Finance attends," before accusing him of being a "mercenary."

 Al-Qadi belongs to the General People's Congress bloc, the Sana'a wing, while Abu Nassar belongs to the Houthi group.

 Hashed added that, after that, Yahya Al-Qadi threw Abu Nassar with a health water bottle, while Abu Nassar responded by throwing him an empty cup of tea, and the quarrel developed into removing the jambiya and unfurling the sticks before the rest of the members intervened and the engagement was disbanded.
