You can use the Python SDK:

#!/usr/bin/python

import ovirtsdk.api
import ovirtsdk.xml

api = ovirtsdk.api.API(
  url="https://engine.example.com/ovirt-engine/api",
  username="admin@internal",
  password="******",
  ca_file="/etc/pki/ovirt-engine/ca.pem"
)

alerts = api.events.list(query="severity=alert")
for alert in alerts:
    alert.delete()

api.disconnect()
