Saudi jets reportedly struck Bani Dhuhl area in Saada, Yemen, Tasnim says

Unverified · Bani Dhuhl, Yemen (approximate: Saada) · 2026-10-19 10:14 UTC

Tasnim News reports that Saudi fighter jets struck the Bani Dhuhl area in al-Dhahir district of Saada province, Yemen. An anonymous X account, @ME_Observer_, separately reports a Saudi air force raid on Bani Dhahl in the same district, but its provenance is a media relay of unidentified origin. No official confirmation or Saudi statement has been found.

Unverified: 1 independent source.

Sources disagree on:

• Place spelling differs: Tasnim writes Bani Dhuhl, ME_Observer writes Bani Dhahl (and Al-Dhaher for al-Dhahir), which appear to be the same locality.
• Attacker wording differs: Tasnim says Saudi fighter jets, ME_Observer says Saudi air force; both name Saudi forces, so this is wording rather than a disagreement about who acted.
• Reporting times differ by about 24 minutes (10:14Z Tasnim, 10:38Z ME_Observer), which is consistent with a later relay of the same report.
