On Saturday 15 March Inmarsat (LSE: ISAT.L) was informed that a Proton Breeze M rocket carrying the satellite of another operator, suffered an anomaly resulting in the failure of the mission.

In view of this news Inmarsat has suspended plans to ship the third Inmarsat-4 satellite to the launch site. Inmarsat expects the launch scheduled for late April to be postponed pending an investigation of the launch failure by International Launch Services and the Russian State Commission.
