Both Iranian missiles missed the island. This is the first report of Iran making use of an IRBM, though it was known that they were working on them. The significance is that possession of IRBMs puts most of Europe (including Paris and Berlin) in range of Iranian missiles. (Just imagine if they had nuclear warheads for them).

The regime had been lying about having IRBM capabilities. This should prove they had ambitions beyond being an immediate regional threat.
