Should "the" be repeated when connected by "and" and "same"?

In a list where I'm repeating the word "same", should I repeat the word "the" also?

For example:

Some people of the same nationality, the same age, the same sex, and the same height are in the room.

Are all the "the"-s needed in the above sentence?
