At 1:30 looks like a failed patriot missile that crashes on the ground.

Two missiles failed! One crashed to the ground shortly after start, another one was exploding seconds after start in the air. Probably the crashed Patriot missile killed one person. At all it's a gigantic fail rate, I don't know if it's the Patriot System or Saudi operators?!

If I would be a high western general, adviser or politician...I would be in panic mode about a not really reliable defense system!

Pk of 100% against the ground for the patriot

They are probably operated by US crew well payed ...

It wasn't reliable in 1991 why would it be today ? They tried to make it ABM capable only with marketing. They know it's not capable against BM.

wow... why this war in Yemen is not getting more coverage?
It makes look the Syrian war ,boring in comparison..
The real good action is in Yemen... from where the Yemenis get so many
air defenses and Ballistic missiles ?

i will not be surprised if NATO themselves arm the yemenis and saudi arabia too..
this is good business for sales of Americans planes and air defenses...

Take a look at the next video.. Many Ballistic missiles are penetrating Saudi Arabia
Air space even after being armed with patriots system.. albeit the Accuracy is terrible
,Yemen missiles are hitting empty zones.. So effectively they don't change anything on the strategic
level .. unless yemenis start to hit Saudi Military bases.

Saudi Arabia cities are attacked by ballistic missiles and is not being reported in any major media..




Neither is reported much the destruction Saudi Airforce makes in Yemen on civilians.

Hasn't it worked well in Israeli hands lately--though admittedly against less challenging targets than BMs.

This is a proper public display of support.

Incredible images from #Yemen ????????

On the 3-year anniversary of #Saudi launching its war on the Yemeni people, hundreds of thousands of Yemenis turned out in the capital Sana'a to protest against the genocide being carried out by Saudi with help from the US and Britain.

The president of the Yemeni Revolution Committee Mohammed Ali Al-Houthi, in interview with France 24 Arabic: We have Russian and Korean made missiles and will continue to respond to Saudi Arabia, if we had Iranian technology and military aid Yemenis would've taken Riyadh' ( Saudi capital city)

They must have run out of Sudanese gun fodder so now its the poor bloody Ugandan soldiers turn to die in a foreign field far from home. I should imagine that the climate and landscape will come as a bit of a shock to them, not a lot of greenery in Yemen. Still no doubt their Generals are becoming vastly richer. Bastards.

8,000 Ugandan soldiers to Yemen

The UAE plans to use Ugandan forces to reinforce its military operations in Yemen, a Yemeni source told news site Arabi21.

According to the source, the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan plans to visit Uganda soon to sign several agreements, including one which would see 8,000 fighters sent to Yemen to support UAE forces there.

Another 2,000 fighters would be sent to Somalia, according to Arabi21.

The source said that the UAE wants the help of the Ugandan soldiers because it fears that Sudan will withdraw its forces from the Saudi-led coalition in Yemen and the strategy hasn't been coordinated in advance with Saudi Arabia.
