Youtube version of the video. Note that in first seconds you can see that one of missile exploded during launch before video started.

 

WTF is wrong with thise guys? Hitting city itself with AA missiles, missile exploding during launch... 

 

 

 

I wonder if the second Patriot tracked the debris from the first Patriot and Scud.

   Saudi Patriot PAC-2 SAM battery in Riyadh fired MIM-104C Surface to Air Missiles at a Burkan 2-H SRBM (Short Range Ballistic Missile) in the night between Mar 25 and 26, 2018.

   The SRBM was reportedly intercepted by one of the SAMs (at least 7 according to journalist Babak Taghvaee were launched) but at least two of them failed: one hit a resindential area (at the time of writing the number of casualties/fatalities is unknown), whereas another one exploded mid-air shortly after launch.

So 7 fired, 2 failed.

   Recently, after Houthis missiles attack against Saudi Arabia, they [Saudis] gave a very strange press conference. They presented part of the Iranian Sayyad-2C anti-aircraft missile, allegedly intercepted on its way [transported] from Iran to Yemen. To my deepest surprise, the Saudis decided to connect this missile to the recently introduced by Houthis missile system Badr-1.

   Surprise is quite understandable, as according to the claims of Houthis Badr-1 is designed to attack ground targets, and judging from the rocket launch footage, it is more like a large-caliber rocket, probably with an fixed tails.

   With regard to the Sayyad-2C Iranian anti-aircraft missile, these are modifications of the Sayyad-2 missiles designed to be launched from the Raad \ 3rd Hordad missile launchers. I basically can not exclude the fact that the Iranians could try to somehow drag through a blockade in a disassembled mobile AA system to Yemen, but to launch the Sayyad-2C you need a suitable launcher and a radar. There is no evidence of their use in Yemen. That is, more evidence is needed. Trying to attach Badr-1 to this missile in my opinion looks like pure propaganda.

The Burkan-H2 rocket flew to the capital of the Saudi kingdom, and Badr-1 flew to one of the border regions of Saudi Arabia.

Badr-1 by the way is similar to the 302-mm Chinese missiles WS-1 \ Syrian Khaibar-1, Badr-1 also looks like have fixed tail wings.

Houthis showed Rujoom mortars that they are producing. Different models - from 60 mm up to 120 mm.
