Iran Missile Launch Fails, US Warship Intercepts

0:00Here's more world news for March 21st. Iran fired two intermediate-range ballistic missiles toward the joint US-UK military base at the Eagle Garcia in the Indian Ocean, but neither struck the target. One missile broke apart in flight, while a nearby US warship launched an SM-3 interceptor at the second one. It's unclear if that interception fully succeeded, according to US officials familiar with the event. The incident took place around March 20th amid rising tensions in the region. Neither the White House nor British defense officials have commented publicly so far, leaving many questions about next steps unanswered.
