Washington (CNN)A number of cruise missiles launched from a Russian ship and aimed at targets in Syria have crashed in Iran, two U.S. officials told CNN Thursday.
Monitoring by U.S. military and intelligence assets has concluded that at least four missiles crashed as they flew over Iran. One official said there may be casualties, but another official said this is not yet known.

This seems interesting just from looking at a map. That's quite a miss.

To be honest, can one really believe ANYTHING that comes from the Obama Administration? They lie so much, who knows if anything they say is the truth.

Russian military technology standards are not quite up to those of Raytheon or Lockheed-Martin.

So suddenly our intelligence is great....
Obama should just call Iran and check up on his new BFF.

Makes me wonder how good Russia’s SU-30 really is that they keep bragging about as being superior to the F-15E Strike Eagle.

I heard that lying piece of s*** Lavrov boasting that Russkies only shoot missiles when they know they won’t miss. How do you land 4 cruise missiles in Iran if you’re aiming for something in Syria?

You don’t suppose anybody might have hacked the guidance software in real time, do you?

Just like they planed, this is no accident, they want Iran to react and blame it on Israel.

My thoughts exactly. I understand the missiles had to fly over Iran to get there, but this shows their new missile is junk.

They can “miss” and hit Israel, too.

The, er, Medecins sans frontiers hospital in AFG that was bombed was caring for TALIBAN wounded, not US allies.
