they hit something. The warhead is only activated when it gets very close to the target. They could have failed and fallen in the ocean or just got stuck in a dune somewhere for all we know.

There is also the chance Russian air defense systems took them out but from all indications, it seems like Russia disabled the system right before the attack.
