Houthi-run Al-Masirah reported on 10 October 2026 that Saudi forces struck the government complex in Same district with two airstrikes and separately struck the home of judge Ali Abdullah al-Samai with two airstrikes. An earlier Al-Masirah report said the judge's wife was killed; a later Al-Masirah video post said the strike killed the wife of one of the judge's sons. No Saudi confirmation was retrieved in this pass.
