ors and backed by the United States. Hadi has since been trying to remove former regime loyalists over concerns that Saleh was using them to further destabilize the turmoil-wracked country. Washington has expressed concern that some in the military have been taking advantage of their positions for personal gain to interfere in the country's transition, since regime change threatens their personal interests. The U.N. Security Council warned Saleh directly that he could face sanctions if attempts to undermine the new national unity government persist. In his latest move, Hadi not only removed Saleh's son and two nephews from their posts, but also effectively ordered them to leave the country by posting them abroad. He removed Saleh's son Ahmed as head of the Republican Guard and appointed him ambassador to the United Arab Emirates. The force is an elite army unit that was once the backbone of Saleh's rule. It was supposed to be reorganized and brought under the control of the Defense Ministry according to Hadi's orders last year, but those changes had not materialized on the ground. In a sign of how challenging the overhaul has been, Republican Guard troops earlier this week forced businesses closed and clashed with police and residents in the city of Radda, about 160 kilometers (100 miles) south of the capital. Three residents and two soldiers from the Republican Guard were killed. In other changes, Saleh's nephew Ammar, the deputy intelligence chief, was made a military attache in Ethiopia.

It comes a year after the president ordered his division dispersed among other military units. The First Armored Division's base in northwestern Sanaa, the capital of Yemen,cheap toms shoes sale, will be turned into a national park, according to Hadi's decrees. The country will now have seven military zones instead of five. The decree also restructures the military intelligence agency to allow for more than one body to oversee it. Among the most prominent decisions was the creation of a Defense Reserve Force comprised of six brigades that will be based in Sanaa to protect Hadi's government from military coups and other disruptions, according to a senior military official who spoke anonymously because of the sensitivity of the subject. The defense ministry will also have a new Inspector General. Presidential spokesman Mahboub Ali told The Associated Press that the decrees were supposed to be announced last November, but international advisers from the United States, United Kingdom,toms outlet, Jordan and the U.N. were late in making proposals.
