#2 I wonder if that is malfunction or counter-battery fire. That mortar is dinky for such a big explosion.

#6 I'm guessing some type of in-bore detonation. CB fire... I don't think the camera or the guy behind would have been around to post anything on you tube. Could've been CB from 81's but back in my day CB was purely an arty battery mission as arty units had the Q-36/37 radars.

#10 The slo-mo shows a flash at the baseplate, then coming out of the tube. So it looks like a misfire.
And now...lets all hum along with Mahmoud and The Martyrs.
