The US government is calling a rocket test launch conducted by Iran a "provocation."
On Thursday Iranian state media reported the country had successfully tested a missile that can carry satellites into space.
The launch triggers fears that the same technology could be used to produce inter-continental ballistic missiles.
And speaking to reporters in Washington DC on Thursday, State Department spokesperson Heather Nauert said the launch was a violation of the spirit of the 2015 Iran nuclear deal:
IN: "We believe that.."
OUT: "....of the JCPOA."
