Probable Shaheen-II launch.

Why is the safety height so low? Could these be upgraded versions of Babur cruise missiles?

370 kilometers is LOW?

Much different. The Ababeel launch was aimed 1000km downrange with a 500km apogee.
 
One rumour I have heard is that the Ababeel Test was a proof of concept test and the MIRV bus is being retrofitted to Shaheen II and III.

Pretty sure Ababeel was tested on Shaheen III but due to increased payload its range was decreased. A shorter range Ababeel/Shaheen II is certainly a possibility.
 
Similar to the general warning issued before Harbah ASCM test.

To add to that, the Shaheen series has been launched from the coast since the 2000s.
True!

a more western location and is used to launch the Ghauris to this date.
Ghauri program was up and running as long as AQ controlled the direction we go in! Once that changed, SINCE that changed, Ghauri program, tests and new development have been . . . . . . . . minimum to be polite :)
