a. the hostages were rescued.
b. the rescue attempt failed.
c. eight hostages were killed
d. some hostages were rescued.

The correct answer is letter B: The rescue attempt failed.

This attempt to rescue Iranian hostages was called Operation Eagle Claw, or Operation Tabas, and it was a United States Armed Force attempt to end the Iran hostage crisis and try to rescue 52 embassy staff that were being held captive at the Embassy of the United States.

The operation failed due to the many obstacles found in the way. Eight helicopters were sent to the area, but only five managed to arrive in operational condition. The operational plan required six helicopters to arrive in working conditions, or else the plan would be aborted, and this is exactly what happened.
