I remember the sirens well. I was 8 years old living in Riyadh during this time. The intercepts would send shockwaves that shook everything violently - had to Duck Tape windows as they were prone to shattering. Interesting memories - thanks for sharing.
Same here.. I remember being woken up out of bed with the sirens (for the first few days) and having to run into my parents room to put on my gas mask whilst my father duct taped the door we just walked through.. try to prevent ingress of any gas. They stopped the sirens in our compound because the local people living outside our compounds didnt have gas masks and it terrified them... I still have the gas mask.. bloody scary stuff.. can't believe my parents didn't have us evacuated sooner...
War is horrific. I can't even imagine living in fear every day that you could just be dead from a missile attack one second. I pray for everyone who had to experience this.

i was in Dharan with the Army while this was going on. Those were literally being intercepted over top of us, the Patriot missile batteries were about 1/2 behind us. So close when they launched and went overhead, we could feel and hear them. Some nights no alarms warned us before the first launch. I still think of it to this day.
Thank-you for the reply. I too was in the Dhahran area with the Army and downrange from the local Patriot battery - I was with the 11th Signal Brigade (this tape was given to me by members of our unit who had been working in Riyadh). There were a great many SCUD attacks in the port area too. Like yourself I have many notable and lasting memories of these events: the civil defense sirens, the clang of the chemical attack bell our unit set up and rang during some of the early SCUD attacks (we actually had a fair number of chemical alarms go off at various times, but were never confirmed by secondary tests), the momentary panic and fear I witnessed in otherwise strong brave soldiers, local police slowly rolling through civilian neighborhoods making announcements/issuing warnings over an intercom in the middle of the night (all while the civil defense sirens wale - I often wondered how frightened the civilians must have been while all this was happening). The hardest memory was being jarred awake, I had overslept the start of my night shift, by the SCUD that impacted within 5km of our unit and killed 27 soldiers in the 475th Quartermaster Group - the typical Patriot/Scud flyby or intercept resulted in a boom that would shake a building from the top - this impact rocked the building from ground. Fwiw, I do not know of anyone making recordings of the SCUD attacks in the Dhahran area.
William Bowen I too was with the 67th Sig Bn. The night the 475th QM got hit I was on guard duty in a tower above the motor pool. The whole thing scared the shit out of me; from the patriot launch to the intercept to the warhead impact. It lit up up real red and the shock wave was massive. After seeing that I just slept through the sirens and avoided the bunkers, if we got hit my mask wasn't going to help much.
Was that the tower in the back corner - built onto the building? The one where you had to walk across the floor boards that felt like they were about to break through at any moment to reach the position? Or was it the stand alone tower?
@@bmghjdful Not always. Many times I would be asleep at 2-4 am and we would be woken up by the Patriots behind us launching or the Scuds being hit over top of us (Port of Dammam, across the bay from Riyadh). Since then I haven't gotten restful sleep and take prescription sleep meds to sleep at all.
I was sleeping at that night . Suddenly the siren is started . I wake up and started to call my pearents . I got scared by the siren . I saw at sky by window then I saw some red light . I played the radio and listened it . On that night i can't sleep . Siren war very creepy. My heartbeat are going to stop.
I was actually in this patriot missile unit. This is a100% legit video. But it does not actually capture much of the action. 17 patriot missiles were launched in defense of the airspace over kkia. You should see the classified videos documenting this. I wouldnt be commenting today if they didnt do their job. Patriot missiles were developed in the 1960's and this was their first war they were used in. The missile technology has advanced greatly now and patriot missile batteries continue to be sold and used in many countries in the world.
i hear different signals. Some are Pulse. Some are Steady. Some are Wail. As i know in a certain countries - Pulse Signal can mean ( Danger is approaching or early alert ) Steady Signal means either ( All Clear or Alert ) but wail is the usual ( Danger or Attack )
They used analog whelens not sure what sirens they were but they also did air horn. My guess was they are Analog Whelen WPS-2750s, also I can hear one pulsing that could be the EOWS 1212 in dammam seaport
I was working at Security Forces Hospital . It was something , the building shook a few times. I was frightening for sure. I was working in the ER for any sort of patients that had got hurt. One was a Saudi General their building got hit and his pelvis was fractured. I was hard the women in housing compound would scream and make things worse. I had to go yell to them to stay safe and tried to calm them. It was very insane ordeal for all.
yep i was 7 and i remember we had to turn the lights off for some reason , if you notice in the end of the video there are not lights in the room , only the tv
I remember this I was 7 years old when the attack happened I was very scared and I was shivering and I was hiding behind the door and crying because I thought my father was dead 😭😭💔

Yeah dude 30 year old video, a war, it was 2 am, the sirens and amber alerts, low quality vid, a big country like Saudi Arabia like it’s really terrifying
1991 year is when the Saudi national guard, civil defence force and every police men clear every street after 12 am and make sure everyone is safe and have gas masks on is there threat of gas attack
To those calling this attack fake, it is sad, im sorry, this attack for most civillians living in saudi arabia at the time, were woken up by a sudden loud alarm and red screen on their tvs, most kids would stare at the screen, not knowing anything about war or attacks, but when it got scary, kids would call their parents out of bed, many were scared with the red screen that was stuck in thier brain, siblings and parents were awaken by their children, they inspected the childs room, dad knows whats going on, and orders everyone to the basement as fast as they can, THIS IS NOT A DRILL, its a attack, the goverment expects you to follow, you must, your will die, it is sad to many things were broken during the attack, houses, shops, hotels, apartments, offices, i am not from saudi arabia, but i fell so sad for the events that happend on january 14, 1991, i wish you all luck.

@@Niiidil The Pintsch Bamag/Hörmann F71 is that big German "siren tower" that has a very specific sound, the siren goes silent for half a second between each up/down cycle, you can hear it in the video. As for the Cyclone, they have the sound of an 8/12 ports siren and Saudi Arabia has (or had) Cyclones. And they never paid for them, which bankrupted ACA in the early 90's
The fact that these sirens are going off for an actual attack makes it creepy and unsettling ! Also I can hear a multitude of sirens: a German Pintsch Bamag or Hörmann compressed air siren, a lot of Swedish Kockum Sonics Typhoon "Hesa Fredrik" air horns, a few Whelen sirens, and a faint, distant ACA Cyclone
yeah, so many people said it sounded similar to the swedish sirens, tho we still don't know if it was Saudi made or imported from Sweden. but truly the most terrifying alarm on earth
@@superbrownsheep3777 The Thunderbolt System 7000 sirens were in Kuwait, not in Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia purchased mostly ACA sirens (and they never paid for them, which bankrupted ACA)

I remember all this..the sirens, the gas mask, the feeling of houses shaking when missiles land ....I was only 8 years old I though this shit was cool not realizing wtf was about to happen
My mom said: When the Golf War started we went to our farm because it's safer and me and my cousins were climbing the mountains there and before we go outside we should wear gas masks and take the backpack and inside that bag is small medical bag and binoculars. We use the binoculars to see the missiles.
I live in a house that experienced a lot of things including this. When the rocket was destroyed a piece of shrapnel came down and destroyed a nearby house and the shockwaves blasted one of the doors in our house.
I compare myself as a six year old back then with the children of Gaza today. It was fear versus carpet bombing now. The children of Gaza are Braveheart.
Oh gosh this was in the middle of the night. Hope everyone’s okay- the sirens were also very creepy and they sound like the Norway sirens. I also hear Cyprus war siren
My mom in Ras tanura in 1991 when she was sleeping my grandma Waked her up and my grandma told my mother and my aunts and my uncles “WAKE UP! GET TO ROOM” then they had to wear a gas mask until when the gas got away now they could takeoff the gas mask I am very sad for my mother for the gas bombs :(

Thank-you for the reply and the complement. I was a soldier with the Army and stationed in the Dhahran area during Operations Desert Storm/Shield. I received this tape from a soldier who worked with one of our units that was located in the Riyadh area. I apologize, but I do not know/remember the approximate location of the unit within the city and I do not know exactly where most of this footage was recorded in Riyadh. Be well.

Marine ODS veteran- I was just trying to remember the sound of the alarms- The audio on the first one actually triggered my hind brain and my reaction to a particularly bad impact. I had to shut it off immediately. Some things do not need to be remembered. I hate to think of all the children living in Ukraine that have to endure this almost daily for literally years. Their entire lives will almost certainly be negatively effected.
@@beefsalan It sounds close to a Hörmann ECN siren (sadly don't know the model name). But since the audio quality is bad it might be something else, That's just my guess.
This is, like, the scariest video ever on UA-cam😕 or at least the creepiest. Creepiest collection of siren sounds. Whole thing looks like a scary nightmare you’re trying to recap. Cannot believe this was a reality for the people of Riyadh at the time. Even the radio on the thumbnail looks like a bunch of eyes staring at you. So sorry to y’all who now can’t unsee it🥲

the worst of the siren wasnt even heard, 🥁👁🗨
2:40 sound like horn from train
Looks like Saudi Arabia has cyclone sirens

Contexto:fue cuando IRAK lanzó misiles a la capital de Arabia Saudí desde fondo se escuchó misiles y gritos creo espero que este dato les sirva
The screams were actually some type of air raid siren i think
1:05 Scud Missile Alert
24:19 also
It’s way worst than the USA’s it’s terrifying
Eternal 85 I know
reminds me of ghostbusters
and i though Canada's alert system was terrifying
Oh gosh this was in the middle of the night. Hope everyone’s okay- the sirens were also very creepy and they sound like the Norway sirens. I also hear Cyprus war siren
I was a kid I was 9 years old
🇸🇾🤝🏻🇸🇦
The name of the siren in 0:25
Kockum Sonics/Kockums Tyfon.

My country brunei was independent at 1981 But gulf war "1991?"
My mom in Ras tanura in 1991 when she was sleeping my grandma Waked her up and my grandma told my mother and my aunts and my uncles “WAKE UP! GET TO ROOM” then they had to wear a gas mask until when the gas got away now they could takeoff the gas mask I am very sad for my mother for the gas bombs :(
This doesnt scare me at all but i dream so bad abt it
Thank you

I’m from riyadh but I’m not in 1991 I was born in 2015 my mom was born in 1977 my mom survived
That must've been scary... Been in Saudi not too long ago, I heard some old men's stories about the their experiences in the Gulf War when we're on a school research project.
Oh cool. Where are you from?
@@Nawa11YT Lived in Al-Khobar, went to Dammam for this project to speak to the observers at that time. I'm in the Philippines now, but it was a remembrance for me talking to them.
If you don't know what is this that was war Saudi Arabia and Iraq
And saudi Arabia win in this war
And that conflict is called The Gulf War.
And the result was actually Coalition victory.
May Allah protect my home country, Saudi Arabia, and this will never happen again.
Why does it give me Ana log horror vibes
La alarma de Arabia Saudita 1991: sonó cuando había la guerra del Golfo árabe empezó todo el día cuando un misil de Irak apunto toda la capital de Arabia Saudita riad (traducido en inglés por Google) The Saudi Arabian alarm 1991: sounded when there was the Arab Gulf War started all day when a missile from Iraq targeted the entire Saudi Arabian capital Riyadh
I don’t really their civil defense announcement in Arabic because I don’t really know how to speak Arabic I kind of don’t like the siren because it’s so creepy
Holy shit i feel bad for the people that were killed by the attack but that siren is creepy i think i going to have nightmares....
have u ever seen the channel Horror Stories? I've seen some shit
1:04 24:20 Saudi Arabia Emergency Alert System.
I remember i was aged 7
imagine waking up to find out what happened while you slept
That was so scary
Btw who launched the bomb
not гей Iraq back in '91
That was so scary
@@Legomakkah lol no
@@1llr it was a scud missile launched by Iraq during the gulf war.
“Whoa! Fireworks!” Got me! Lol
Hello Dear
Documented very well
This year is the date of birth in Riyadh
Days go quickly
Where the neighborhood you live in Riyadh?
Thank-you for the reply and the complement. I was a soldier with the Army and stationed in the Dhahran area during Operations Desert Storm/Shield. I received this tape from a soldier who worked with one of our units that was located in the Riyadh area. I apologize, but I do not know/remember the approximate location of the unit within the city and I do not know exactly where most of this footage was recorded in Riyadh. Be well.
@@Pillbowen Was this footage during Operation Desert Storm/Shield?
@@fernandolomas6635 Yes, this was during Operations Desert Shield/Storm.
@@Pillbowen My dad served in Operation Desert Storm/Shield.
@@Pillbowen I’m sorry that your vacation was a disaster from that year
0:35 Norway eas alarm?? (This comment created 2024(
Everyone found this footage. The Gulf War, where allies declared war on Iraq. This was recorded in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
pretty bad quality, but historic information. maybe some day with ai, this will be even better!
these sirens are legit scarier than Israel's EAS Alarm (or Palestine if you are Muslim which I am)
That is crazy how a man recorder this on a camcorder! This is a VERY rare footage!
30 years ago, February 25, 1991 or February 26, 1991 the day when the missile hits Riyadh Saudi Arabia.
So sorry about that i live in ankara and the earthquake was come
[The letter from turkey and palenstine🇹🇷🇵🇸]
I Dont live here but i feel so bad for the people who had to exsperience this! like imagine if this alarm played at night! it sounds like horror game music!
I live in the uae and it’s very safe everyone should come in the uae
@@ذيابوابوظبي I live in the UK
It was a horror game coming from a saudi person😅 it was trying your luck not to get hit by a missile
@@COURIER169 That sucks man, glad it was good for you in the end
I was born in 1995 August 21st (2013 January 12th) also I don't wanna remember this EAS alarm
Let's not forget the fact that this was 30 years ago makes it even more horrifying than it actually is
_The most horrifying part in my opinion is __24:18__ bc the letters in english are ALL. CAP. LETTERS._
Can someone give me a backstory?
Gulf war.
Iraq Fired Scud Missiles To Saudi Arabia And Israel In The Gulf War, Multiple Scud Missiles, He Requested This For (I Am Pretty Sure) Because He Was Tearing Up To A Palestinian Woman Speaking (And Probably Felt Bad For Palestinians)
Ok i don't remember this because i was born in Scotland but Holy shit this is scary
Yep
Marine ODS veteran- I was just trying to remember the sound of the alarms- The audio on the first one actually triggered my hind brain and my reaction to a particularly bad impact. I had to shut it off immediately. Some things do not need to be remembered. I hate to think of all the children living in Ukraine that have to endure this almost daily for literally years. Their entire lives will almost certainly be negatively effected.
What is the name of that wailing siren? Please I need to know
That’s Hesa Fredrik
That's a ACA screamer S2
@@mishplayz1288 No the one around 1:50
@@beefsalan It sounds close to a Hörmann ECN siren (sadly don't know the model name). But since the audio quality is bad it might be something else, That's just my guess.
Emc 864
By the way Iraq also attacked iran
The horns sound like the one’s in Sweden
spooky lol
This is, like, the scariest video ever on UA-cam😕 or at least the creepiest. Creepiest collection of siren sounds. Whole thing looks like a scary nightmare you’re trying to recap. Cannot believe this was a reality for the people of Riyadh at the time. Even the radio on the thumbnail looks like a bunch of eyes staring at you. So sorry to y’all who now can’t unsee it🥲
HOLY SH*T THIS IS SCARY LIKE SOMEONE SCREAMING AND IT SOUNDS LIKE NORWAY
كان عمري ٤ وقتها كان رعبب💔💔
Imma have nightmares about this
Reason: Saudi Arabia were in a gulf war and there was a nuclear attack in riyadh and It has this warning
@@Zeyad_Green are SCUDs nuclear weapons since they are ballistic missiles or are ballistic weapons not nuclear weapons
@@jadalomer1295 they’re chemical actually
