"According to two people familiar with the incident, the failure inside the engine was "uncontained" and debris spewed out of its casing."
That's not necessarily the definition of an "uncontained" failure (as has been debated on here previously), but if it was then it's bad news. Even if it wasn't, it seems likely to lead to a further delay in CSeries certification/EIS.
